Many years ago I received a new C-64 as a christmas present from X #1. It's still in the box.
Someday if the V-20 dies I may start using the new C-64, but really don't know why I'd need all that memory.

HAHAHA! Oh, I had my C=64 stuffed full, with the ML Monitor and the extra RAM expansion, two floppy drives, and the (ugh) Thermal Ribbon color printer. Oh yeah, the Turbo ROM upgrade, too, and the (gasp) 300 bps modem.

My memory of it is fading, but I remember having a lot of fun with it. When a friend found a PC in the trash and I "upgraded" it to an XT, I tried to give the C=64 away, but by then, it was a fossil, and no one wanted it. I was unaware of the online Commodore Museum at the time, so it is in a landfill somewhere.

Actually, I kind of miss it. Paperclip III was quite a good WP Program.
