Guest Post: The Real Story of Hacking Together the Commodore C128
The most popular computer ever sold to-date, the Commodore C-64, sold 27 Million units total back in the 1980’s. Little is left to show of those times, the 8-bit “retro” years when a young long-haired self-taught engineer could, through sheer chance and a fair amount of determination, sit down and design a computer from scratch using a mechanical pencil, a pile of data books, and a lot of paper.

Guess which Commodore Engineers are in the comment section?

That was a great read Chuck. I have very fond memories of the C128 because we had one when I was a kid in the 80's.

Actually, I still have one in my collection of old games / computers!
