1 edit | I've had both... C64 and Amiga 500.
I actually purchased a kit to allow it to run AmigaOS and DOS (machine ended up with 2 BIOS).

| said by Air WAV :Hitch Hikers Guide to the Galaxy...yep, the memories. I spent EONS trying to figure that game out! (Having never watched the shows or read the book, I had nothing to go on.) Took me like two weeks just to get past the bulldozer without getting hit in the head with a damn brick. |

Can't say I dabbled with the 64 but I did have the 128. It was the first pc I ever got onto the internet with. Anyone remember cp/m too?
