I have a 64, not my original one, RIP.  Of course, I have a plethora of other old computers now....

64 will never die. :) I have my grandfather's setup. I had my own of course but it is long gone.

This is kind of illegal, but I did not realize it at the time (I was young) when I got my C64, all it cost me was to make a copy of an LP of some rap artist I had at the time (Can't remember who now).  I had fun with it, upgraded the skin (Casing) got me a 1541 and a few other things.  And to be honest, I am not sure how I got it to get off my hands.  I used it along with my Atari 65xe which I used to run a BBS as a hobby and as today, the hobby continues on my Amiga set-up.  Telnet: necro.cnetbbs.net.  Good old C64  :)
