- I have got Commodore 64 for approximately eight years, but I haven't used it
- much in the last one or two years as I have bought a PC.
-
- This conference was quite a surprise to me, since I thought that the legendary
- "Computer of Republic", as it was advertised here in Republic of Finland, was
- dead.
-
- There seems to be lots of interesting enhancements, like hard disks. Last year
- I planned to connect a MFM fixed disk via a PC controller card to my C64.
- It would have been difficult, because the only documentation I had was the
- documents of how to connect such a drive to Amiga. (And I didn't understand
- 68000 language well enough.) Also the MFM disks and controllers are getting
- rare.
-
- Are there any documents about connecting an ATID disk to C64? Or MFM or RLL?
-
- The accelerator boards and memory expansions interest me as well. If there is
- an easy solution, please let me know.
