Tanto: I've been waiting for someone to start this up. Kudos.
Ack Sed: Fascinating. But... "Commode 64"? Don't start that again! :-P
Kinitawowi: Go look on comp.sys.sinclair sometime; it never stopped. ;-)
arromdee: I can't believe someone actually thinks there weren't gaming magazines around in 1983.
The part about computers also seems questionable. In the course of discussion on the Wikipedia article, someone looked it up; the installed base for home computers of that time was small compared to people who had 1980's-era consoles, and couldn't possibly explain most of the difference (though it certainly didn't help).
