I'm so happy about this one. Lots of people talk about their first computer
they had. Well, I didn't have this one back then, but it was the first PC I
ever touched, so that's something.
I sure wish I could find my C64 that I had when I was younger. My parents
got rid of it since they didn't think I would want it. It was a very
complete C64 compared to most. It had the system unit, 2 floppy drives,
the Commodore monitor, cassette drive and a Star printer. Last time I saw
the machine, my uncle had it up in Chico Texas. He had also acquired
another bare C64 system unit. I asked him about it a year ago, and he told
me his family had given it to a church up there. I don't know what
happened to it after that. Maybe it will turn up again some day :/
