A Little C= 64 Love
Here's a fun one for the weekend. A retrospective of the Commodore 64 and it's place as a great game machine. The C= 64 sold something like 17 million units and is, to this day, the single greatest selling computer model of all time. My first computer was a Commodore 128 which was basically an expensive C64 with a lot of worthless hardware in it. I don't think I ever did much with it other than run C64 programs. Well, when I programmed in Basic I did so in C128 mode. You could renumber lines there.

ReplyDeleteIt's nice to see some acknowledgement for the little bugger of a machine...most computer history shows seems to skip this guy.
ReplyDeleteStill a fun little machine...and some cool hardware and software is still being produced..albeit slowly..
