Commodore Computer Collection in Australia.

Hi all,

I've finally got my Amiga and Commodore collection to the point I'm happy with it (almost) so I've made a video and uplaoded it to Youtube.
Watch this to the end for the BIG finale.
Thanks for the help and support of EAB.

You can see it here >:

Hope you find it interesting.
cheers
klokwirk.

Thanks hansel75,
The last holdout is a working Amiga A1060 sidecar which are proving very hard to find these days. I had one back in 1989 so it has a place in my heart even though it's IBM. I've been looking for one for a couple of years now.
cheers

So you got every Commodore machine ever released, plus the upgrades and expansions? You're nuts!

I only had a C64 when I grew up in my childhood, and have used the wonders of emulation 3 years after I sold it. I enjoyed emulation so far, but last year, I decided to go for the real thing. I already got an A500 and A1200, and I am looking to get the A1200 hooked up to the net and find a way to transfer ADFs onto a heap of 2DD blank disks without investing in a GoTek.

Certainly a nice collection you have there klokwirk. I still haven't total given up on resurrecting the A1060 sidecar I have. The caps have been replaced but I suspect it maybe the ROM after all since we still don't get any audio with the usual kick up of the system.

Not Every commodore - just all the ones I could find at a reasonable cost. It costs a bloody fortune to ship to the most isolated city on the planet. I get enormouse pleasure out of running each one. They are all different and unique in their own way. And I re-started out with just the 1200. Sounds a bit like you....
