I was introduced to Commodore when I was ~ 8.
I was introduced to Commodore when I was ~ 8. Brother in law had a VIC-20. Thought it was pretty cool. My dad bought a Plus/4 maybe later that year for the family printing business. I played that quite a bit. Then he bought a 128 for home, and that's when the computer bug bit me. I started attending a local Commodore computer club. My dad bought a 64 for me a couple years later and played it for a few years. Then I moved to a 486-DLC and other PCs. After several years, I started messing with C= emulation (not that good then) and I felt the urge to play those great old games and feel the real keys and original joysticks. So, I retrieved my 64 from my cousin that I sold it to a few years before. Not long after, I saw the caretaker of the old Commodore club hardware in the store and we started talking. I told him that I was getting back into C='s again and he told me I could have ALL of the old hardware and software. Also attained a couple of Amigas from eBay. During this time I started the Global Commodore User's Group on Facebook and G+ (now only G+ because I hate FB.)
Now, the sad part. Because of space problems and money troubles, I sold off everything but my main 64 that now has some sort of illness that I can't diagnose, and quite a few joysticks that I'm going to use for emulation on my Windows PC.
Even though my collection is gone, my love remains for those great microcomputers.

This could be useful for a variety of reasons.
PS, this should work in the VIC-20 too. Possibly other Commodore 8bit machines.

Great list of retro computing resources by Ed S
Great list of retro computing resources by Ed S
Originally shared by Ed S
Here's a collection of pointers to Communities, blogs and forums relevant to Retro Computing interests. Since I made this collection, a few more collections and communities have cropped up. I'll add a list as a comment - please add your own recommendations!
(Although there are lots of pointers here, most are low traffic, so my approach is to join up with everything which looks interesting and unsubscribe later if it doesn't suit.)
