[cctalk] Four-Phase Systems

I've been working on a machine since early October that has seen a very rough life. My inventory found it to be an IV/70 that was upgraded with an IV/90 expansion chassis, an NP80 peripheral controller and a Wangco tape system that I only received the the formatter for. I've been trying to document

Commodore 64's generally sell for between $75-$200 these days on eBay. Finding good, working ones (working SID, VIC-II, etc.) with clean cases that don't have broken edges or inner tabs is getting harder. The C128D is a much different story. Those were not produced in nearly the numbers of the C6

This eBay seller reached out to me and said they had 4 of these things + a disk controller that they’re trying to get rid of ASAP, ignore the list price and message them. I am not affiliated, had just previously messaged them inquiring if they had NonStop media for it and they do. I don’t have t

It's an Apple branded Silicon Valley poster, which explains the unbridled hype. There are many variations of this poster, over many years. I doubt just any old Silicon Valley poster would be fawned over as this one has been by the Pawn Stars clowns. Then again, people generally aren't very discern
