Commander X16

It isnt missing it, it just isnt as far along or as polished as the Commander X16 or the Mega65. If you like contributing to stuff like that it could be a better machine. It has a usable OS and BASIC it just isnt as polished or as far along as the "big 3" (Mega 65, ZX Next and Commander X1...

The Mega65 is a LOT like the Commander X16 and maybe not worth it. The Foenix is a bit different in that it needs a lot more low-level work (OS, BASIC etc...).

Youre right, the 4a came out in 81.

Hello from North Dallas! I grew up in the 80's with a C64. My actual first computer was a TI-99/4a in either 1979 or 1980. I learned BASIC on that and then mowed lawns all summer long in 1983 at the age of 14 to get a C64, 1541 drive and MODEM. I used that C64 from 83 until I joined the Army in 1992...

Thanks for this! An open world space exploration/trading game is one of the games I wanted to write for the X16 and Mega65!

This is awesome! Time Pilot ranks in my top 5 arcade games of all time! Thanks!
