RIP Jack Tramiel, you changed the life of millions for the better.

Wile Coyote: He visited his home country, poland, some years ago, and was also welcomed by some (iirc) polish atari sceners.

Although he wasn't really responsible for the technical brilliance of the C64 computer (Chuck Peddle and Bob Yannes are the REAL heroes behind that), he made sure that these computers were affordable at the time. Otherwise my dad wouldn't have been able to afford one and I would have never been involved in the C64 scene in that case. This computer changed my life completely!

R.I.P Jack - a great man who made sure that Commodore computers were THE computers to chose from!

Thanks. I'd forgotten much of Soiled Legacy.
I really like the constant but ever changing audio.
I'd never spotted Jack in there in the past.
