mykgerard Posted February 6, 2017 Share Posted February 6, 2017 My first computer experience was with an old (even at the time) Commodore Pet that I used to hall out of a hall closet from my elementary school to use during the after school Latchkey program in the Library. I used it to teach myself the rudiments of Basic and I yearned for a commodore 64. A friend had a Vic 20 without a power supply and I gave him 20 dollars for it in 6th grade but I was never able to track down the power supply and eventually I gave up and tossed it in high school (this was before craigslist and the internet). Now Fast Fwd to 2017, and I bought one and I'm sharing it with my daughter and son (mostly daughter since he's only 3) We started a retro gaming family youtube channel on youtube here is the C64 video figured I'd share! 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
