ANOTHER VISITOR! STAY A WHILE…
Welcome to my website, dedicated to my favourite pieces of computing technology, the Commodore 64 and 128. These two machines are where my fondness for computing began and where I have a lot of happy memories.
I'm not a master programmer of BASIC or 6510 Assembly, nor am I an 8-bit gaming wizard. I'm just a regular guy who still enjoys tinkering and playing on his Commodore computers. I still use my C64 and C128 today and on these pages I'd like to share the fun things that I continue to learn about them .
And, in case you're wondering what model of 64 I like the most, well that would be the one inside my 128!
The C128: Commodore's dark horse?
Even though the C128 was a popular choice for many Commodore users at the time, Commodore corporation still seemed to do it's best to stifle sales and popularity for this 8-bit wonder. If so, what could have been the reason for doing so? read more...
I wasn't alone in my opinion
Seems like RUN Magazine's Editor-in-Chief Dennis Brisson and I held pretty much the same opinions regarding our Commodore C128s, back in the day. read more...
RUN Magazine was a Commodore user's best choice
I've come to the conclusion that from what I've read, I think RUN magazine was probably the best written and covered the most useful information for the “average” home and small business Commodore user. read more...
Progress has been slow, but I've been working piece-by-piece at migrating data into the library. At the moment, I'm slowly transferring video files over to Archive.org for easier viewing/streaming. I've also been gathering more game instructions, which I'll be adding to the library as time allows. Hope you're having a blessed summer!
As I've been migrating content over to the Library, I've also started transcribing and adding instruction manuals for the games for the titles that I can find. So, over time, the Game Instructions section will include as many full game manuals as I can find time to transcribe.
Review: Submariner Round-up
Just posted a new review of sorts; I've collected the best “bottom-up” submarine games for the C64 and do a brief comparison for each. The games include Sea Wolf, Seawolf II, Seafox, Fire One and Seawolves. read more...

My Mini Commodore
Today there's an entire range of Commodore 8-Bit emulator systems. But back in the early 2000s, we had to be a little more creative. For me, the ASUS EeePC 701 fit the bill perfectly. read more...
