I'm running a Tandy computer right now, not sure you can do anything with the Commodore though.

I don't think so dude. I think that was before the net. I had an old Amiga and I'm not sure if it had Internet capability and that was after the 64.

No graphics, no software for that...but a commodore is a great machine on which to start to learn about programming.  It is almost exactly the same as Dartmouth Basic...It is limited in the arrays department,  but it's great to learn how to flowchart.

I'm not being sarcastic here, you are a fucking genius.  

YOU ALWAYS HAVE SOMETHING INTERESTING TO SAY, no matter the subject.
