Ooooh - cool toys... That digitiser cart looks like a cool toy I had the four game cart with my first C64. Loved Flimbo's Quest but the other games were rubbish.

If you want to swap one of those Amstrad controllers for a Quickshot II gimme a shout

spent too much time playing this
parallax scrolling with some sort of classical music in the background

Only had my c64 for few months before switching over to "Only amiga makes it possible"

 

[cosmicfrog]

nice c64 stuff you got there m8

 

[protek]

Nice!

I've always fancied an FD-2000 but even the 1581 seems to be around every corner compared to that.

 

[rkauer]

Serious rig you got in there, John. You got my envy.

No, serious, awesome 8bit kit.

 

[roy_bates]

Nice pics mate, but please no more C64. My hand is nearly inside my pocket to put out some money for a complete C64 system.

I'm just too close...

The problem with me is that I never had a C64 before.

Awesome rig there John, thanks for sharing!

I'm with you man, I cant tell you how many times over the past two years that I have been sifting through auctions on the other bay and I see a complete C64 setup and sit there for 20 minutes with my mouse pointer hovering over the Buy it Now button.

I know I'd regret it, not because of the C64, but more because of space to put it and time to use it.

 

[johnim]

guys just get a 64 you wont regret it
