That was a big deal back then. Commodore 512 was one heck of a computer.

I used to have a Commodore 64 in the 80's. It used an Apple cassette reader and the games took like 5 minutes to load, LMAO. It was great though, a big step up in the graphics department compared to the Atari which I had at the time.

Yes, if you look at the prices of PIII Coppermines, you'll see what I'm talking about.

I got a game too run from loading it to C128 from their magazine. What a long process. A guy told me they did not work. But I got the Puppy to work.

 

[HardWareBoss]

I guess we had nothing better to do. From P5 to PII. Fun to talk about the old stuff.

 

[namek0]

Hell yeah, I'm still of my Dual Pentium II computer, I swear it's case is solid lead, it must weigh a 80000 pounds

It's all good ^_^

 

[slvr_phoenix]

Heh heh heh. I still have my old C=64 around ... somewhere. I should get that thing out of its box and set it up again. So many fond memories...

For Sale on Ebay last nite. Highest bid $16

 

[ChipDeath]

bring back the ZX81! Now <i>that</i> was computing power at its finest. It's all been downhill since then..

[EDIT]
actually, no - it's predecessor the ZX80 was even better.. no native support for floating point - integer calculations only..

[pIII_Man]

what gets me...is how expensive those old xeons are!

You can pick up a z-80 from ebay real cheep...a few bux..

But then again the z-80s are still in production....so i guess you could get them directly from zilog...
