Before the demos, I share a couple of recent retro-related purchases, or RRRPs, or triple R Ps! #mega65 #commodore64 #commodoredemo 📝Companion blog post with more information and all the links you need at: https://www.retrocombs.com/c64-on-meg... 👍 Please take the time to like, subscribe, and support the channel using the links ↑.

C65 DESIGN, MECHANICAL KEYBOARD, HD OUTPUT, SD CARD SUPPORT, ETHERNET, EXTENDED MEMORY AND OTHER FEATURES INCREASE THE FUN WITHOUT SPOILING THE 8-BIT FEEL. HARDWARE DESIGNS AND SOFTWARE ARE OPEN-SOURCE (LGPL). The Commodore 128, also known as the C128, C-128, C= 128,[n 1] is the last 8-bit home computer that was commercially released by Commodore Business Machines (CBM). Introduced in January 1985 at the CES in Las Vegas, it appeared three years after its predecessor, the bestselling Commodore 64. The C128 is a significantly expanded successor to the C64, with nearly full compatibility. The newer machine has 128 KB of RAM in two 64 KB banks, and an 80-column color video output. It has a redesigned case and keyboard. Also included is a Zilog Z80 CPU which allows the C128 to run CP/M, as an alternative to the usual Commodore BASIC environment. The presence of the Z80 and the huge CP/M software library it brings, coupled with the C64's software library, gave the C128 one of the broadest ranges of available software among its competitors. - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Commodo...
