Sadly I missed the whole C64. My dad bought us a Spectrum 48k.
Then we moved on to Atari STFM and then to Amiga.
I do own The C64. Just so I can play Short Circuit and a few others. As after hearing SID music and playing some of the games, I'm hooked on SID tunes.
Just ordered one. I started with an C16, and short after upgraded to an C64. Together with a friend and my dad we followed an Basic training for some weeks. 1 day every week in the evening. This was such a great time. For home use i managed to create applications in basic. The c64 was my childhood computer. Some years ago i bought 1 from a online website. But it thing died after a few months. It is old stuff.
So when i saw there was a new one coming, it was pretty clear and i ordered one. The standard one is ordered. Since that one (the beige color) brings back memory's.
