64c

You don't, by any chance, have a brand new C64 in the original, older form (I mean the bulky case)?

I remember when I used to be impressed by my friends C46. I could not afford one so I used to go to his house to "play" with it.

I met him once now that we are grown up and I asked him if he was still into computers. He said that his C64 was gathering dust and cobwebs in the cellar and he was not that interested in computers anymore.

Pity he never got to know the Amiga.

Aaah the memories..........

Going for a second run of selling these?

Hmm, if only there would be a way to ship those over seas in a safe way to an affordable cost, then I would buy at least one of them each. I have thought about this and I don't care about the 110 Volt / NTSC stuff anymore! ;-)

Last time I checked a dodgy but cheap IDE interface and CMDs old hard drive product line is back in production by Maurice Randall, but it is supposedly WAAAAY backordered. He is slow churning them out apparently:-/

I bought them from someone who found them in a warehouse auction lot. I didn't get them dirt cheap by any account, but reasonable.

I have something up my sleave, stay tuned:-)

Both. Brand new as in NOS (New Old Stock). I opened 1 box of each up for pictures. The others havnt been opened at all since they were packed at Commodore back in the day.

Now if you could find a SX-64 still in the packaging... :-) I've thought about selling mine several times, but just can't bring myself to do it.

Oooh, a friend of mine had an SX64 when I was young.. I was SO jealous!!

Ah, the memories..

I can vouch for these - I got one of each from his first sale, and they work great.  It was quite unbelievable to open up a brand new C64 box in 2003.

Red, you rock  :-D

PS: don't forget the swap at amiwest!

Now, if you also had Action Replay VI's for those... :-)

I have only one of those, here, I've got 3 C64's, 2 floppy drives
(1541-II and OC-118N)

Ethernet connection would be quite cool, but I doubt, if it'd work
with my connection... :-(
