C64 Revival part 1: the whole system
After having started programming in 1979 on a PET CBM 4032, I bought a Sinclair ZX-81 in 1980 and finally sold it in 1982 to buy this wonderful Commodore 64. I'm still using it regularly more than 25 years after, as you can see on this picture. It is now connected to the SCART input of this Samsung 40 inches HD-Ready flat TV (LE40R86BD).
C64 Revival part 2: the display
Thanks to the internal VIC-II MOS 6569/8569 PAL graphic chip, the fine display resolution (320x200 pixels) is totally compatible with the 1366x768 pixels of our LCD display.
C64 Revival part 3: the devices
I connected the original peripherals: tape recorder, disk drive (Commodore 1541) and printer (MPS 801). Unfortunately, I was unable to find any of those single-sided 170 kilobytes 5.25" disks.
C64 Revival part 4: daily programming
As you can see on the picture, Agnes uses this state-of-the-art computer very often, for instance to manage our bank accounts, to print recipies, letters and so on.
C64 Revival part 5: it works !
Yes, it works !
