I am not sure about the rest of you but I started out with the Commodore 64 as my first computer. It led me to the Commodore 128 and finally the Amiga. I have very fond memories of the Commodore 64 and it is hard to believe that it is now 30 years old. Where has the time gone?
I thought people could share some of their memories of the Commodore 64.
For me, I remember standing in a Target department store playing with the Commodore 64. Some of the models had the Kickman cartridge plugged in and the store also gave away popcorn. I can distinctly remember the music from Kickman playing over and over again with the heavy smell of popcorn in the air. It was quite magical.
I did received a Commodore 64 and a 1530 Tape Drive for Christmas (I had to save for half) which launched my life into the technology world.
Good times!

Update:
I forgot I was going to add this:
Jim Butterfield's Guide to the C64
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vcDEwjJAVE8I believe there are 16 chapters to this guide (all on YouTube) with the legend himself.
I don't know if it was made for everyone at the time or Commodore Sales Folks.
Anyway, it is pretty good.
Enjoy!
