Commodore 64
Old, brown and… bread-boxy. But boy, does it have an awesome set of accessories with it!
Narrative »
- Another client with another machine. Annette sold this unit to me with four boxes of extras, including manuals and software unopened. Killer find.
Vital Stats »
- Model Number: C64
- Serial Number: P5136765 B
Acquisition Data »
- Acquisition Date: April 2011
- Acquisition Method: Purchase, $300
- Acquired From: Client
Physical Condition »
- Condition: Fair. The SID has failed (the analog side, I believe) and has been replaced with a NanoSID. Missing nameplate, feet won’t stay on, some nicks and scratches.
- Last Tested Date: 10/5/2014
- Other: Original power brick present, but unreliable and the cause of the death of the SID so I cut off the end and attached it to two external wall bricks. Not smart, I know, but I couldn’t for the life of me get a proper plug to solder and stay soldered. None of the associated packaging is present. Manuals, cables and all original pieces are present.
