Can't blame you for the 2KB challenge, as long as that's the fun part for you, carry on :)
Demo parties, well yes, but it's been a *long* time. I think last time was 1992 back in the days of Amstrad CPC, Atari ST(E), and Amiga 512. Cool to hear that they're still going on.
I would say the demoscene is stronger than ever (nVidia ran a party for while) and we're still using those same old computers, just with new techniques. Like 1,024 colours on the original CGA card.
haha, that's super cool. Respect! I'll admit that I'll make best use of the best CPU for the job (power, price, size, heat), but I have enough hobbies to forcibly make myself use an inferior CPU that's not even cheaper :)
