How do I "get" youtube on my computer?

The idea of staring into a CRT monitor for hours gives me a headache and makes my eyes hurt.
Believe it or not, I held up fine on CRT's. My eyesight went bad, when I started using a Laptop as my primary computing device. In just one year, went from 20/20 to needing reading glasses. I think the CRT forces you to give your eyes a rest, where as the LCD, LED screens, you don't realize eye fatigue as quickly as I did with CRT monitors. Can spend a solid 6 hours straight staring a screen writing and debugging code often. On a CRT screen I needed a break every hour or so.

I remember those. They aren't 100% compatible with the C=64.
Actually, the SX64 IS a C64 in every way, including the cartridges. You may be thinking the Commodore 128 in C64 mode.
Also, if you're watching from the youtube.com website, please add a script blocker (to prevent at least some of Google's tracking) and advertisement blocker (to prevent you from being annoyed) to your browser.
My first computer i bought at discount auction. It was something akin to a Mac 5200 CD series with 500 Mb hard drive, 14 modem, and 8 Ram. That was in 1996. It was worth learning because I later set up my office in just a few days, including ethernet networking, printing, etc. with cheap macs (Filemaker Pro) a few years later.
Right there, I began to see that if one is patient and persistent, YouTube is a treasure trove with almost limitless possibilities. Please take the time to do some serious exploring. There are some wonderful surprises there.
