[net.micro] Keyboards and Colecos, who can be proud of their work

I wonder about your reference to "Commodore-itis" in your article
on low end machines.  You state that people making these machines
can not be pround of their work.  While it's true that the Atari
looks very nice inside and shows a lot more thinking in the software
department than other systems (mind you, there are some real botches
in the Atari and others), I don't see how it can be claimed that
the designers of the Vic can't be proud of their work.  They put
together a fairly simple computer that can be built for peanuts.
Because of this they sell for very little, and a lot more people can
afford computers than could before, even if they are only Vic-20s
