Hello all.
My name is Greg. I had a C64 back in the day. I typed all my college labs on it and printed it out with my MPS 801. One instructor asked me to get a new printer 'cause he didn't like the way it printed 'g' and 'y'... Got my 64 when I was in grade 10. I hacked it apart, installing a reset switch by soldering some wires onto the ground and reset pin of the card slot (I think it was the card slot). I put a drive number select switch and write protect by pass switch on my 1541. I had a pocket modem -- a 300 baud third party modem that I had to replace the relay -- it only ever did pulse dialing.
I'm really looking forward to some nostalgia with this machine. Been fiddling with the emulator.
Greg
