|  Comparing C64 to Plus/4
Lando: I have no problem whatsoever appreciating the Plus/4 on its own terms. If I did, I wouldn't have hunted one down on ebay (it's expensive to buy one from Germany which seems to be the only place to get them from. The shipping to Sweden costs almost as much as the computer itself. But I digress...). 
I think the Plus/4 is a amazing computer in its own right and a great game is a great game no matter what. I play games on my VIC-20 without ever comparing them to C64 games. It's just a matter of putting yourself in the right state of mind. When I'm using my Plus/4, neither my modern PC nor my C128 exists. That's what retrocomputing is all about for me.
So bring it on! If you love a C16/Plus4 game, chances are I will at least like it, even if I have no nostalgic realtionship with it.
