I'm not arguing with any of that. If I try to draw a comparison between what got me excited about 8-bits and what's available on the RPi, I still see a disconnect. There was a visceral connection between POKEing a memory location and a pixel going black on my Spectrum, and that's just not there with the RPi. There's a big black lump of Broadcom-stuff between me and the screen.
