X2008: Commodore 64 QUIZ

Hi sceners!

For the upcoming X2008 I am programming a Commodore 64 Quiz on the PC which makes use of the PlayStation Buzz! USB Controllers. You can play the quiz with 4 players and it will be projected on a big screen.
I am sure this will be great fun!

Because there is not much time left before the party gets started I want to ask the community to help me to come up with some good quiz questions about the Commodore 64 (specs, games, demos, programming, the scene etc...)

For example:

What was the nickname of the Commodore 64?
Breadbox
Lunchbox
Toolbox
Shoebox

Please start with question and then the right answer and finally make up 3 funny bogus-answers.

I hope you can help me all and make the QUIZZ!64 a great game.

Thanks and see you at X!

uhm... if everyone here goes post the questions + answers, wouldn't that make the game kinda boring, since practically 80% of the people who attend X also visit CSDb?

Maybe you are right about that and is it better to email me.
I am planning to include hundreds of questions and trust me you will not get bored!

Genius: For the really tough Questions (like, the $50000 questions), you can check out "Commodore Trivia Corner" in c-hacking, starting at issue#7

What tune was used in this or that demo? Who made the graphics for blablabla? What handle does XY use for his scene activities?

And so on.

Please save me some work and write down some questions and answers that I can really use. Ofcourse you will get credits!

For example:

Who did the tune for the game The Last V8?
Martin Galway
Rob Hubbard

I really like the idea of this game! Sounds like good fun.

But I wonder if taking questions from C=-Hacking is a good idea now, as it has been mentioned in this thread? And what if I'll be asked my own l33t question?
