Getting a C64 up and running?
« on: July 04, 2010, 09:11:45 AM »
so tempted to hunt down a C64 to mess with.

The biggest question I have is... what options are there for getting a downloaded C64 disk image unto an actual disk or otherwise playing on the 64 ?

How much should I expect to pay for a PAL model these days ?

Ditto for disk drives

Anything to watch out for, or be concerned about?

Thats good advice. Was not familiar with the jiffydos chip.

So the uIEC that was linked, how does that work exactly?

I load disk images unto an SD card and....then what happens?


Thanks guys and sorry for the stupid questions :)
