Must be nice to finally have the original and not just the deluxe version (=c64)

Are you the same d0c as on "datorernas folkvagn" forum?

I just witnessed the delivery of a boxed VIC-20 from the trunk of a car, on a dark parking lot outside McDonalds.

(I was neither the buyer nor seller)

I was the seller

and it was a bargain for the buyer

From this we learn that VIC-20 bargains are best resolved in a dark parking lot.

Welcome!

As for retro fix, here are some of the features on my C64: (picture here)

-20GB HD
-52X CDROM
-10Mbps Network
-576K RAM
-Serial port up to 230Kbps

So that's not very retro any more, is it?

So I go back to the good old VIC when I really want the retro experience
