unfortunately, it’s not on anymore. it was a healthy contrast to the shows, that want you to “make sure to read and understand all the instructions that come with your power tools”

but to get all excited about a c64, somehow reminded me of harold’s stage control mods. i bet he reads h.a.d. ;)

I actually found a 300$ diskette program from the good ole days for the c-64. It has “up to date” medical information and even simulators for brain activity.

The C64 was my first computer. I’ve still got one (not my orginal), and two or three 64Cs. I’ve also got that music keyboard add on shown.

We are still using them. 8bit Ventures released the MSSIAH cartridge in 2008, the successor to their popular Prophet 64 cart.
R64 has been well-known on their forums for his amazing C64 mods for quite a while:

I have looked at the videos and pics of that project many times, its … incredible… but I believe it is run with the midibox core module, sequencer module, and sounds are from the midibox sid module which uses the commodore 64′s SID chip by MOS technologies.

I even messed up the teachers programs at school ( math answers did not equal real math answers.) I gotta a get me another c64 before they go completely extinct. It has AWESOME games like, “Jumpman Junior”, The cartridge. Even had a modem for it. It was the coolest stuff ever. Maybe I gotz future shock?
