it's about respect for the weirdest !
go back in 80's, before the "graphic internet", the web was existing among newsgroups & bbs.
i like to see that some very skilled programmers who litteraly take the guts of these old good computers. and it's even awesome that commodore64 have tcp/ip now ! even vic20 had a twitter experience
sure it's a nightmare even just for have "google" in text mode. but it's that the real computer respect ! get the guts of your hardware. crystal atari browser was known for atari st/tt.
but well if it's only a game site that is not necessary (damn that's the third site after megavideo/myspace that i cannot try access anymore)
