This brought back fond memories of 5 years of fun I had writing Commodares and Rupert Report for Ahoy! magazine: Ahoy! Magazine [^] You could do everything from amazing graphics (e.g. fractals) to hardware interfacing using BASIC and assembly language, including PEEKs and POKEs and sprites. I gave my C64's and C128 to friends who use them for creating exotic sounds in their 'circuit bending' live-performance band. I wonder how many C64's are still being used today!?
