THE REVIEW

Müönë: “I will tell you an imaginative story!”.

Glüönë: “I'm all ears!”.

Müönë: “Commodore developed a prototype of a computer successor to the C64, named with great originality C65”.

Glüönë: “Huh? I've never heard of it! Do you expect me to believe you?”.

Müönë: “Of course, it's true!”.

Glüönë: “Come on, everyone knows that the successor to the C64 was the Amiga!”.

Müönë: “The new capabilities included a modified version of the MOS 6502, a graphics chip capable of displaying 256 colors from a palette of 4096, and 2 sound chips with synthesized and digital sound”.

Glüönë: “Never seen one around. I don't want to continue... do you take me for the first fool in a swarm of neutrinos?”.

Müönë: “A frequency of 3.54 MHz, and a RÅM of 128 Kb, expandable up to 8 MB”.

Glüönë: “Don't you have any other singularity to tell me about?”.

Müönë: “Including the internal 3½ floppy disk drive”.

Glüönë: “I’m not listening to you anymore... I cover my ears... Ob-la-di, Ob-la-da”.

Müönë: “Over the years, it has become a coveted collector's item. In 2019, a functioning C65 was sold for over 20,000 Euros!”.

Glüönë: “Hey! Look at the imposing image of the event horizon of a supermassive black hole!”.

Müönë: “Moreover, the C65 has an admirable aesthetic, look at those cutting-edge lines. A true hardware relic”.

Glüönë: “Enough already!”.

Müönë: “Hey! Wait! Why are you annihilating yourself? There are still various advanced features I want to list for you...Hehehe!”.
