I just couldn't wrap my brain around this subject.

This is my 1st challenge, and a poor attempt at that.

fantastic - good choice of topic, but a little weak for the challenges here.
The PC-style keyboard on top throws the picture off a bit. But, you needed something to avoid the disqualification based on taking a photo of an existing artwork without putting it in some kind of context.
Good luck in the future...

edit to add: it existed in '84, I remember...

Oh the memories here! I'm glad I still have my CCS64 emulator! :)

I would have colorized the color strips on this picture and desatureated the rest of the picture. Would have made it way more interesting and the yellowing of the keyboard wouldn't have made a difference.

Genius !! though that's the nostalgia coming out in me !! (I wish I still had mine!)
Have given this a 7 purely because this is one of the only photos that has really made me think back to that time..almost!!!
(I believe the C64C came out around '86-87? - but don't quote me.. I know it was a little later than '84..)
Still - excellent!! :):)
