I remember 'upgrading' the bbs to a 5meg Pet HD -- The thing looked like a metal shoe box with a single led blinking on the front of it..


I remember when I first saw CMD's 10MB harddisk for the C64.  I wanted one of those *SO* bad.  But, my mother wasn't willing to shell out the dough and my allowance would never cover it.  So, I made do with my 1541-II.  It wasn't until I had had my A500 for 3 years that I managed to get finally get a harddrive.  I gave all my 8-bit C= stuff away when I graduated high school.  I've been kicking myself ever since. :-(
