Hello from New Jersey
Posted: Fri Jan 22, 2021 6:04 pm
Hello everyone! My name is Andrew and I'm a firmware engineer from New Jersey. I've been following this project with some interest since the first announcement video.
Growing up as a child in the 80's, I was envious of the Commodore 64 machines that some of my friends had. I had a Timex Sinclair 1000, which just didn't compare in capabilities, especially graphics and sound. I've been considering buying or building a modern Commodore 64, but getting a Commander X16 also seems like it would be a good way to have fun with a machine of similar capabilities.
I have several decades experience with embedded firmware, digital electronics design, and FPGA programming. I'm curious to see when more technical details of the X16 will be available.
