C64 30th Anniversary

Yes, that right. 30 years of awesomeness. Despite not being build for many years anymore, the ghost of C64 is living on in Emulators and a huge retro-scene.

In January 1982, the Commodore 64 was revealed to the public. In no time it stormed the households and occupied the lives of a whole generation. It had a big influence on our behavior. There is even a book written about that topic. But I think I will someday write my own experience :).

And we may not forget that the VIC-20 (VC-20) made the way free for the success of the C64 in 1980. Oh how I miss them. Don't shout at me, but silly me sold both of them. A big error.

But hey, I still have my Amiga 2000. I'll never gonna sell it.
