This just in - Commodore B128 low profile computer (NOT 128D)

by chrisc＠addpower.com

The computer itself is kinda nice. It had a MOS 6509 processor in it, which was the beginnings of Commodore's memory management experiments. Some models also had the same video and sound chips as the Commodore 64. I'd really like one of these myself. :) steven … [View More] <tosteve(a)yahoo.com> To: cctalk(a)classiccmp.org Sent by: cc: cctech-bounces@clas Subject: This just in - Commodore B128 low profile computer (NOT siccmp.org 128D) 02/05/2004 01:35 AM Please respond to "General Discussion: On-Topic Posts Only" Don't know much about it yet, but it sure is pretty!

Forced eBay ID Change?

by healyzh＠aracnet.com

Anyone else have their eBay ID forcefully changed recently? I've had an account for over 6 years and I predate the rules against using an email address. Looks like the b******* have decided to forcefully change all of us using email addresses for our ID's so as to better control the flow of information to us. Zane -- -- | Zane H.
