This is CNN...on the Commodore 64

The Commodore 64 is 25 years old...and while I'm interested in that fact, I wouldn't have guessed that CNN would find it noteworthy enough to make it the lead item on their home page:

(Side note: I'm quoted in CNN's story...)

The venerable C-64 has been in the news lately. But I wonder, why hasn't anyone mentioned GEOS, the operating system replacement for both the C-64 and the C-128 that gave it a Mac-like interface.. I still have my 5-1/4 disks for GEOS in my desk at work. There was even a developers program that allowed you to write programs for it.
Might make a good article.
