Oh. Well, while we're waiting, let's see how others currently celebrate Christmas, back in the past.

A Commodore-singed Christmas seems a good place to start. A special Yuletide go on the Commie to see in the Midnight hour is well underway then. (Especially as hitting STOP over and again breaks the '82 program so I can sample the full decay of all that lovely SID.)
Ah, 80s-ana. Takes me back to school and all the paperweight decorations littering all our classrooms, only up a few days before being destroyed, so we could all enjoy making more the next year. And I don't think we even noticed.

And before the golden age of the Commodore, typewriters were whatever it was that was good. Well, more in the way of useful.
Even they have Christmas, so they must have been pretty OK. Well, good enough that mine still comes in handy for quick labels and such.
And you know you have your rose specs on when you realise we came along just as advanced electronics truly put comercialisation at the rightful heart of Christmas.

So Merry Christmas, happy gaming and I'll leave you now with the wonderment of Christmas '89.
(There could be life after 1989, who knows. In fact, I don't want to know. Past 1990, it's too much the scary future I can live without.)

I don't miss the childhood Christmas excitement though. Kept me up half the night.
