 Bu> Although I agree with the sentiment, it's not the Commodore OS from days

 Bu> simple XFCE desktop install Vice from source add in all the bells and
 Bu> whistles on Vice and just put a Commodore wallpaper.. LOL Makes sense
 Bu> for me.. I like the idea of it just hate the bloat of the software..

I completely understand, from a hardware lovers point of view... but for the normie, it still gets them learning about C= software so; I like it. :P

But I hear ya... certainly doesn't help anyone understand how to set Disk 8 to 9 or other THINGS. :P
