Of course, the technology allows us to build a perfect hybrid
system that's a true C-64 with the original circuitry and that of a
truly modern PC but the money's not in that unfortuently. Imagine
how nice it would be to have a computer that had a true 5 1/4 drive
that allowed you to upload all you old programs being that they still
work, the disks that is, and store them on a HD or what other media
you choose. I have shoe boxes full of old disks that I have in the
closet.
