RSSCommodore 64 LAN party
Hah! This is awesome, Slashdot has a quick blurb on the the first Commodore 64 LAN party!
The world's first Commodore 64 LAN party was held at the Cincinnati Commodore Computer Club 2008 Expo last weekend, where the new multiplayer C64 game NetRacer was unveiled. The setup consists of up to eight Commodore 64s with Ethernet cartridges and a central server written in Java running on a PC. The game is also playable over the Internet.

That's actually a unixish wordpress theme. There is a C64 one, but that's not it.

Oh, come now, "first"? -- I had Commodore 64 "LAN parties" way back in the 80s... we played the game "Modem Wars"!
