ok, you bought a Commodore 64, 25 years ago... the model was still on the market when you bought it, so you thought it would be just great to buy some games for it, and all the possible extensions.

now, you want to use your commodore again, but the joystick is broken... you call at the shop you bought your machine, and they refer you to the Commodore HQ for pieces and service. They say they can not help, and that you will have to go to a flea market to find an old machine for the pieces...

You whinne, you complaint, you fill a grief, and they turn back the regular answer: we can not help, we do not support the engine for 24 years already, sorry...

i personally think they would not let any discussion go after 2 pages of a thread, nor 25 threads in the last year...

so why do you continue?

... and yes, my example is flawed... just apply it as you wish
