8 bit music is sweet...
Timbaland got "Do It" for Nelly Furtado from C64, in the beginning part and around 2:40 you can hear the melody he stole

Paddles were the bomb. I played The Sky is Falling, for the longest time. The Vic 20 was all about the cartridges and tapes. The C64 was all about the Epyx Fast Loader, and copying games from your friends with Fast Hack'em, and then trying to finish another frickin' level in Impossible Mission.

Except maybe, we can add Summer Games into the mix

I got (well, my dad got for me) my first C-64 in '83. Paid $400 each for it, the 1541 disk drive (170k, SS-SD 5.25" floppy, woot!), and the 1702 13" color monitor.
The 1702 is sitting on my desk right now, hooked up to a Shaw box for my computer room TV. Still looks great, too!

Writing code in BASIC was the shit back then.

Learned BASIC by hitting BREAK in the middle of various games, then LISTing the line it stopped at, and modifying the code to see what would happen

Does anyone have a working C64? I dug mine out and tried to power it up. It powers up, but only get a blue screen and no prompt (cursor) or any text whatsoever. Now that I see it there, I have the urge to get it working. LOL.
