All the things that go wrong with C64s were explained a few years ago when a lone programmer by the name of David Crane discovered a little person living inside his computer.

Intrigued by the little chap, he decided to encourage him to come out of hiding by building him a house, furnished with all mod-cons, such as his own micro, a record player, TV and a piano. As it turned out, these LCPs (as they are known) are very friendly, enjoying the odd conversation or a dance. But remember - you've got to keep them fed well or they could turn ill.

All the initial reviews of the Little Computer People Discovery Kit were of the disk version, which has a lot more depth that the tape one. Not that it was a bad thing releasing it on tape, as tape users shouldn't really be excluded. If you haven't seen it before and you like pets then it is worth checking out, but the lasting appeal may be a little limited.
