Still have one some where.
1541 drives, 9pin Dot matrix printer.
If you don't remember the C-64, I am sure you don't remember the VIC 20.
Or the Timex computers.
They set the price for an entery level computer in the area of under a grand.
The Vic 20 I bought for $40 brand new. I made the mistake of not buying a data set.
Stepped up to a C-64. Had about 5 of those in the family.
The good old days, 1200 baud was all that you could push. then 24k modems.
Modem speed wars playing Galatic Empire (on local boards).
OH well I tell my age.
