I’m going to cancel mine for lack of interest. Besides: I’ve had enough, and it’s time I share the rest with someone else. ;o]

OMG! I have one of those sitting in my garage complete with manuals. It was a “gift” from a friend who finally got a windows box a couple of years ago. :-) Does anyone know where I can take it? It still works perfectly.

A certain male member of my family had one of those when they were the hottest thing going. It had (heart palpitations!) a cassete-tape drive.

There are probably collectors who will buy it to run contemporaneous game programs. Sheldon Cooper in “Big Bang Theory,” for instance ;-).

Hey! Good to see you! How are things going for you now? I guess with spring, you are dealing with lots of pollens.

I’ve pung a few folks who may have a few ideas...maybe they can ping others about the Commodore. (NOT Lionel Ritchie!) LOL!

I still have mine, and we have a local interest group which meets once a month to discuss the 64 and other quaint devices.

Last month we were talking about Hollerith-coded punch cards.

A clever fellow in Denmark has made a device to take the place of the 64’s memory mechanisms, using solid-state drives and such. It takes some of the creaky gears out of the equation, and makes program retrieval super fast. The capacity is unbelievable.

Some people still like the 64’s music capability, and for a long time, quite a few people were transcribing music for the 64’s Sound Interface Device, or SID.

Hi.

Is it a mystic number?

No, it's the number of the post.

5.56mm

You are awesome, Bob! Thanks for your input.

LoM, you may have something in your possession that is worth more than you know to some people. Why don’t you check Craig’s List and see if there is a 64 group in your area? Someone may be willing to buy it from you. Couldn’t hoit.

;o]

But Cajan Jihad is so DEAD!

So dead, we have appropriated his thread for our own nefarious purposes.

Welcome to the Undead Thread, M Kehoe!

I knew that - I just wondered if you’d chosen that post number for a special reason, or just at random.
