It had a different processor and version of Basic. You could start it in 64 mode to run all your favorite C64 progs. It also had a heavier power supply to support expansion products like REU's and the SuperCPU. It also had a Z80 processor for if you wanted to run CP/M, the predecessor of DOS.

Weee...I just played the old game Commando. Damn that's kewl! And the tune actually rocks. Just downloaded it in the sid-format, kicks ass!!!

Does anyone know how to copy the c64 games to the PC, so they can be played in an emulator? I think I had about 1000 games for it, and some of them actually still kicks. Unfortunately I'm not patient enough to wait for the stuff to load anymore, so maybe you could speed it up on the pc somehow.

Actually there are a couple of options, one involves a custom cable to connect your drive to your PC, or if you have 2 drives, you can make D64 disk images and transfer them to your PC. If you already have a 3.5" floppy drive for your C64, it's not too difficult to do. I'm on ICQ a lot, and I don't mind answering these questions for those that have them.

thanks observer.

my current project for the c-64 is to hook it up to my pc, maybe see if i could set up a c-64 partition on my hard drive and store rom images on it to use, something small like 50 megs would go a long way for c-64 roms.
