That brings back memories long forgotten. I'm never going to miss my Vic20/C64 tape drives, ever.
Except when I first got my Vic20 as a child the tape drive was half a year away. When I got it: Pure bliss. I could save my programs.
In a weird way I feel sorry for my son who never gets to experience such wonders. But then again maybe it is just good that IT will never again be the obscure, ostracised (from a child's popularity in social groups point of view) thing it once was.
- gerdesj 8y ago"I'm never going to miss my Vic20/C64 tape drives, ever." I recently had my childhood C64 fixed up by one of my employees (turns out they are good for something). It now has virtually every game released on a SD Card via a rather modern interface to the cartridge slot. This beast used to have a floppy drive and I remember how amazing that was compared to the tape drive.
