This is probably the Commodore system I used the most over the years. I did a lot of programming on one of these. This particular one I picked up from somebody I met who sold it for $50. In this image, it is running GEOS 128 in the 80-Column mode. Looks nice on the 1084 monitor. Technically I could hook up the other 1571 too, but nah. I wish I had a mouse. I could plug in my Amiga mouse for looks, but it wouldn't work. Same as the Plus/4, I wish this machine would have gotten more attention from the Software makers. My brother has a standard C128, I might get a picture of it in here somewhere. This was the last Commodore 8-bit machine I ever owned. After that I went to the Amiga. And even though this is the most powerfull 8-bit computer I have in my collection, for some reason it is the one I like the least. It is sort of ugly and just doesn't have that same Commodore feel to it as the earlier models. So when I get out a Commodore machine to play with on occasion, I never get this one out.
