I first got into the Commodore world with a VIC-20 that I paid over 200.00 USD for (at the Navy Exchange on the base I was stationed on back in 'the old days')and a tape drive.
I have some time to spend with my grandson now, who, even though his mom has got him a fancy xbox game machine and a windows machine, is still more thrilled about my pictures of the Commodore and the history of the Commodore. He saw a special on tv about it.
I was going to try to find the best emulator I could and set it up for him on my computer, which is running Windows 7 ultimate.
Bottom line is if anyone could recommend a good starting point for this project I would appreciate it, as I have not been able to locate a working Commodore 64 and tape or disk drive.
Please email me at starmaster at gmaildotcom
Thank you so much

There are *lots* of *real* Commodore 64 computers and peripherals on eBay.

Probably VICE. Package comes with many different Commodore machines, like
VIC20, C64, C128, PET and others. <http://vice-emu.sourceforge.net/>
