I chose a Commodore 64 over an Amiga 500 and I don't regret it

Gave up the Amiga for the C64 myself back in the day, and honestly my fingers still hurt thinking about how slow the disk drive was. Loading a game meant making a sandwich, eating it, then waiting another 10 minutes just to see a loading screen. But hey, at least I could type up my school reports on it while my Amiga-owning friends were actually playing games. I guess we all have our priorities, even if those priorities are built on self-sabotage.

Haha, that reminds me of the time I borrowed a friend's C64 for a weekend and spent half of it just listening to the drive click and whir. I think I got one game loaded before bedtime, and by then I was too tired to actually play it. Those old machines really taught you patience, whether you wanted to learn it or not.
