Apologies for the long post, tried to keep it brief, it just /looks/ big :)

I still use my C64 for gaming and back in the day I used to use it with a modem to go on BBS. The C64 is still very useful today if you head over to http://www.volny.cz/dundera/ you can pick up a IDE64 cartridge that will allow you to connecting an IDE hard diskdrive and CD-ROM drive to your C64, I also have the ETH64 device which is a Ethernet card for the C64.
