Very excited,
I had to hook it up in my office at work.
It's in great shape, and very clean.
Ernie was awesome and so was Joe.


I've ordered a 64K video upgrade for it and a megabit ROM with lots of goodies 
for it.
I also ordered one of the Commodore XE1541 + XM1541 Adapter PC 1541 64 128 
thingies...
To transfer some disk images over to floppy...

I also bought an eprom programmer, a uv eraser thing
And two cartridge boards... (with plastic cases)

I cannot wait to get home and play with it.

Now all I need is some talent to put it all together...
I think I will try and develop a Game Show system for my wife to use in school.
Hook up the projector to the C64 (not my precious 128) and use the user port
To control 4 player boxes I have previous built (using an atmega as the main 
brain)
I hope I get further this time... (so does she I bet...)

in any case, there you have it...

On another note:

When I was in highschool ( or middle school, in etobicoke ) I had a friend
Named David Harrison, a very nice guy with a commodore 64, he loved that
Thing and always  went on and on about it... I had my apple ][ plus clone,
And was always envious... in any case, I was wondering if he was still part of 
the
Community, if anyone knows him or remembers him?

:)
