Good programmers don't comment their code. It was hard to write, should be hard to read.

A little off topic maybe, but a few months back I went down to Melbourne to the "Syntax 07" demo party.
Anyway, here is a release from that party which might float your boat if your a bit of a Commodore buff :)

I can point people to a nice 8 bit Commodore emulator that does all of 8 bit series and another site with thousands of games/demos that work with it.
If anyone is interested. :?:

That's a good question. It appears that it's aimed at the gaming audience.

About 1998 the amiga was supposed to have been revamped for sale in the US.
The specs for that machine were aimed at the Music/AV/Gaming audience but it never came into being.
