An entire Web site has been 100% developed on the Commodore 64. The little keyboard box you see there and that big huge disk drive is where the Web page is stored. So… if it takes a while for the Web site to load on your computer, especially the picture, remember the computer is only 1 Mhz in speed and only has 64 KB of RAM. The disk drive itself has only 2KB of RAM and is also running at 1 Mhz. Can you imagine how such a primitive system did this? Amazing.

Popular Passwords Include ‘1234′ and ‘password’
When 28,000 log-in details stolen from a well-known Web site were posted online recently, security firms discovered that a sizable minority of Internet users are incredibly naive at setting their own password. Four percent of users, opted for ‘password’ or a similar derivative as their password, and 5 percent had chosen the names of pop singers or TV shows. Three percent had chosen nonchalant passwords including ‘yes’, ‘no’, ‘idontcare,’ and ‘whatever’.
