I learned to program on a C64 and one of the first programs I wrote myself was an incredible basic "database" (really just a program that could store and then return simple fielded data.)
I named my database management software Datasette as an homage to the C64. I also figured it would be a unique name that would be easy to search for...
... jokes on me, it turns out the retro computing C64 community is way more active than I expected and there are still plenty of people taking about Datasette tape drives online, 30+ years after they stopped being manufactured and sold.
