Intel Mod
My first PC was a Commodore (PC10 fitted with a 20M HDD, effectively making it a PC20). I think they were made by Siemens.

Go to QVC.com, and type C64 in their search field...unit currently sells for US $33
You may want to hold off a few months, though. The next generation is supposed to allow connectivity to an external keyboard, and a port for downloading additional games.

Commodore vic20 and then I got the 64 and never looked back. Loading games were the best, go get lunch while it loads. I wish they made a decent emulator for it on the PC I have about 500 games and would love to play a few. Hate dragging my 64 out to play with it. Any one ever use q-link with them back when 1200 baud was the big thing. That why I still laugh at people who complain about dialup. They should have been back when and they wouldnt complain
