      i found 2 old IBM AT's (x86 i think?) and they didnt work. i peiced them together to make a working machine.

      next was an IBM PS2 (286 or 386)



      remember when windows came out, it was like a zillion diskettes and took all day to install? lol

              Still C64 in a working condition and I still use it. Excellent entertainment for a small 4/20 party. Nothing like playing River Raid or Boulder Dash on a C64 connected to a wall projector.
              I couldn't possibly know what I'm talking about, I'm completely, absolutely and definitively out of my fucking mind.

                man.. I wish I still had mine..
                my son would love all the games I had for it.

                I loved running a Commodore BBS while I was
                in High School.. I would spend all class (computers)
                fucking around on it remotely.

                I traded for a Commodore Plus 4.. what joke that was..lol

                      get an emulator and download the crap out of www.c64.com i tried with my son but he was puzzled at the simplicity of the games compared to ps2/dreamcast, he loves genesis/snes games though.

                              We also had a VIC-20 and then the C-64. Danny started a single line BBS on the 64 around 1987 too

                              The first computer we had was a TRS-80 Model 1 from Radio Shack in 1980. We had the 4K unit, 4 kilobytes of blazing RAM!

                              We also still have our Atari 800, Atari ST, and the Coleco Adam (if anyone remembers those). Our storage room in the basement is a museum of old computers. Everything from an old IBM XT that had 2 floppy's and no hard drive, and up!

                              He just won't throw anything out

                                haha, me too... remember "Tower BBS"? probably the easiest to set up from back then, started seeing it everywhere quickly.

                                i had a c64, then the c128... heh, along w/ *4* 1541 drives, i could play ultima 3 w/ no disk swapping! also, didn't get the 5mb drive, i had the 10mb unit called "Lt. Kernel"... ah, thx for the reminder of those cool days when Toys 'R Us had cutting-edge computer hardware..
                                ...promise her a defamation, tell her where the rain will fall..

                                              Danny couldn't save any programs at first, no drives at all. He would write basic programs, then have to copy them down by hand on paper after he was done. he says that he thinks they maxed out at 999 lines of code!

                                              BTW, I'm just repeating what he's telling me from the couch behind me.

                                                BTW, I'm just repeating what he's telling me from the couch behind me.

                                                Ha.. funny shit Carol.
                                                My friend had a Coleco Adam.. those were pretty neat
                                                but the Atari 5200 was the best at that time.
                                                Of course, I did not have one

                                                    ...and I still have all that old content up in my archives section

                                                    I used to make a lot of money from Xpics way back then. I helped Mario with his program as a "beta-tester" and did really well. That was before Brian came in and screwed everything up!

                                                    My first advertising check was from Xpics. My second was from WebPower (made a lot of money from Amateur Hardcore). My third was from "Dirty Bird" if anyone remembers them!

                                                      you coded an app for that? or over standard tcp/ip?
                                                      Here's a description of the X-cable: http://www.64hdd.com/c64-proj.html

                                                      I did write my own loader for C64 and a Linux daemon to feed the data. The daemon was the hardest part with all the crazy track emulation. I wish I had time to tinker with that stuff again.

                                                      I also attached a 320Mb IDE hard drive to a Sinclair ZX Spectrum. I probably have every single piece of software ever written for that computer. Some of it is in languages I don't speak but I have it just cause I can. I get a hard on from watching a 40Kb program load up in less than a second. When ZX was my only computer it took 5 min from a stupid tape.

                                                      I couldn't possibly know what I'm talking about, I'm completely, absolutely and definitively out of my fucking mind.

                                                        Man.. Xpics was the shit!

                                                        .18 to .25 cents per click with NO RATIOS ????

                                                        Now, that was the shit.

                                                        I made like 300-600 a day on most days and
                                                        no less then 100 on any slow day.

                                                        Of course, I hosed Adult Check from AVS traffic with
                                                        stupid sites I made in order to build traffic.

                                                        Now, those were the days

                                                          I was raised on Commodore machines. Like many others started off with the 64 (With a couple 1541s, 1571 a super snapshot card and an Epyx FastLoad cartridge that kicked fucking ass). My dad would trade games through the mail with guys all over the fucking world, we had so many fucking games it was insane. I remember playing Quest for Tires for hours and hours trying to finish it, same with Grog's Revenge. Sammy Lightfoot, Loderunner, and the greatest games ever, Summer Games I & II, Winter Games and World Games. First time I played Summer Games I could believe how fucking awesome it was. Then we graduated up to an Amiga, went through a few of those (500, 2000, bought a 1200 when I was 18) and when Commodore died I went over to the dark side and bought a 486 (Cost 4000 dollars with a monitor, ran Linux and not Windows though) My dad bought some old 64s about 3 or 4 years ago with all the games and shit, and wouldn't you fucking know it, 80% of the disks he got were his old ones from when he sold our 64 system, funny how that shit went around 3 or 4 different people and then back to him. Every now and then I get nostalgic and fire up a 64 emulator and check out the 64 web sites and look at the games, I can remember playing almost every fucking c64 game on those sites too. Those were the fucking days. Think I'm going to grab an emulator and some games right now.

Of course, the book had some typos too so basically hardly any game would work!

                                                                                      I always see those style of joysticks in second hard stores. Sega Genesis game pads also work well (I even remember there being a trick to get all 3 buttons to work on the Amiga).

We couldn't connect it directly to our old tv, so we ran it thru the video player to the tv. The night my dad sat up with me all night while I clocked the machine on Space Invaders...he video'd it! ;)

My grandfather worked at rockwell space section and they slowed down so he would play on the computer all day and bring home new games almost everyday. i loved it and i think that is my favorite computer...the great old 64, that is how i got into computers, i was playing with the 64 when I was four which was 1986! yes i know i'm a youngin, but i don't know may 21 yr olds that remember the 64 quite like i do!
