<<Geek Warning>> C64's Birthday

<< < (4/7) > >>

TicTac:
I had a spectrum 128k!    
30 mins for the game to load then it would crash 5 mins into playing it :evil:  :evil:  I hated that thing, but it was THE thing to have!

Disco Matt:

--- Quote from: "DarrenG" ---My last Amiga was an A2000 for which I bought a 20Mb Hard Disk on a full length card which cost nearly £500!

We had something like that in the Amstrad - I can remember Dad driving to Evesham Micros (as they were then) and returning with an enormous box, then spending the evening fitting it.

The Smiths:
In a cupboard I've got two C64 and a boxed ZX81 (with 16K RAM pack)

J B:
we had a C64, and my mum it would be nice to bet a book of games that you had to write into the machine, instead of "cheating" by "up-loading" a game via the tape thing

so i spent weeks typing in a game form the book

when i finnaly typed "run"

what do you think happened.......







......thats right....


"syntax error"

 :evil:  :evil:  :evil:  :evil:

davidlandy:
i had a c64 too, and remember spending hours waiting for the tape player shaped like a tablet to load anything in.  I used to like the Tony crowther games like loco, son of blagger as well as the US gold stuff.

got a 1541 disk drive in the end , and that was better but still slow!

....then got an amiga a500
