I have loved computers since my Timex Sinclair in 1982. Then my #C64 that I got for Xmas in 1983, which I still use. #Commodore #RetroComputing #retrogaming

I LOVE it! The Commodore CEO in the clean room as he puts the power switch into the very 1st Commodore 64 since Commodore came back and owns all 47 original Commodore trademarks. This is just AMAZING! to happen after 3 decades. #WeAreCommodore #C64 #Commodore64 #Commodore

Commodore is BACK! They have now gone over 10,000 new C64 sales! (two of those are mine) I LOVE this quote from them. "Together, we’re not just reliving history, we’re building the future together. Welcome to The future we were promised!" #C64 #Commodore64 #WeAreCommodore

I truly LOVE the look of the Commodore 64 Breadbin! I prefer it over the look of the C64C and its wedge case. Taking a straw poll, you are being given a C64 and can choose a C64 Breadbin or C64C, which to you pick and why. #C64 #Commodore64 #Commodore #WeAreCommodore
