I regret that I must sell my Commodore 128D.  It really is a nice clean machine and would look nice sitting next to your 1000 in the vintage computer room:-D Ebay item # 250111896703

Thanks for looking,
Jeff

One of my favorite machines. I have a PAL version just as clean. Pitty about the inferior vic output. the C64 has a much cleaner picture. Other than that; flagship 8bitter.

I just had a question asking if it was NTSC or PAL and I don't have a clue, do anyone know how I can find out? I had just assumed it was NTSC as it works fine with my 1084 monitor. I don't claim to be an 8 bit expert anymore by any means :-D

Thanks,
Jeff

the "beloved" C= management could market these gems as comptitors to Amsdtrad's PCW range of computers. The PCW range were dedicated machines for word Procesing and spredsheets. They were made out of junk components and had Amstrad's custom 3-inch floppy drive (with super-expensive disks of low capacity). Somehow Amstrad managed to sell around 5 million of them, thus making them a great success. If Commodore were even half-asleep they could market these wonderful 8-bits to PPL who needed a computer for word processing and day-to-day calculations, but found IBM's junk, too expensive.
But I guess they were too busy making their own IBM-junk-clones....  :roll:
