 General Information
Classic Computer system of the '80s. The best selling system of all time.
Notes:
All
my friends had Commodore 64's.. I had an Apple ][e. I was jealous.
I can remember calling the local Commodore bulletin boards at glorious 300
and 1200 baud on those charming semi-internal modems, and enjoying
the Commodore Colour character set. Then returning home and viewing
them on my Apple ][e and seeing nothing but green and black.
Sadly, the cult following that once graced the Commodore 64 has, by
the most-part, dissapeared. The household name "Commodore"
no longer has meaning, with a growing number of people no-longer
remembering the existance of the machine.
Even though this is an 18
year old system, software is still widely available. Through my
rummaging and collecting, I have quite a number of Commodore titles,
some in original packaging, and even a dozen or so cartridges. All
in all, the Commodore 64 is a classic that should never be
forgotten.
