How many years does the C64 have remaining?

With activity down, combined with appearances of sceneres releasing old stuff created years back, I wonder how much the C64 scene can continue?

Quote: no, scene cannot die! - i still haven't squeezed every weird sound out of 8580, give me more time for that, please :D

Squeezing all weird sounds from SID? That job will never be finished.

I remember that we had the discussion ever since I am a member of this scene - and before. So, I don't see any reason why this should be over one day. The C64 is an evergreen, so are the games, all the good memories, and thus also the scene.

Even in 1986 people declared the scene "dead" when they left for Amiga/ST. And 1001 Crew was calling the C64 a "rotten old machine" that year too :)

I have said this before, and it seems like JA also has reached that conclusion: When we all get old and retire from our nice careers, we will get more time and thus more time for data. The scene lives by itself.

The scene will last until December 21, 2012.

Then it will die, along with everything else on the planet. Or so they say.
