• Any The C64 or The VIC-20 users here?

    From 8-Bit@64:500/7 to All on Thu Jan 14 14:17:41 2021
    I am talking about the newly released versions. I picked up one of each when first available via Amazon UK (for shipping to the US). I haven't picked up
    The C64 US version yet and is currently sold out. Pretty slick since they are nearly identical to the originals with modern ports.

    I would love to see matching peripherals, like a SD drive that looks like a small version of the 1541 drives. This would be ideal since they made the two color versions to match the Vic-20 and Commodore 64.

    The other cool thing is they sort of announced the next unit which looks like an Amiga 500 (if you are an Amiga fan).

    Thanks,

    Hi 8-Bit!

    No.
    I received a 64 mini as a birthday gift.
    I very much prefer my ultimate64!

    The Ultimare64 has 3 USB ports.
    I have a Mini Sandisk 8 GB Stick connected with a lot of NUFLI, SIDs and D64s.

    CU, Ricsi
