Minor nit: computerland didn't sell C64's. They sold "business computers." In 1983, that meant they were trying to sell Apple ///'s, IBM PCs, Apple Lisa's and maybe a leftover CP/M machine.
You had to go to your local toy or department store to get a C64's or 1541. I remember the day the C64 price hit $200 at BEST (discount toy-heavy catalog store.) But the 1541 was still something like $400, so... OOF!
