On 19th April 2008 I have followed the trend and I've also computer meistervkauften Worldwide risen.
Unused, in original packaging and with the 1541-II floppy. Granted I have
paid 10 €, something is today by only at the flea market.
This is my first C64, in his best time I had myself no. Only in school and with friends I've used one.
My first computer was later an Amiga 500. So I've
the C64 immediately something missing and it changed in the last period and extended. are reset button
In the original state is no way to restart the computer:
first. If something crashes, or you want to play another game, one must usually turn the computer off and on again.
2nd: Floppy replacement
With the 5.25 inch floppy you come today not far off. It is slow, the disks take up much space and can exchange data with other computers is therefore no longer so easily.
The solution (for me) means sd2iec, a floppy emulator that stores data on an SD card. www.c64-wiki.de/index.php/SD2IEC source for the kits is the Forum -64.
here the right is the sd2iec installed in front is a joystick installed to switch the disk images automatically (for example, if a game consists of several disks)
pushed forward the changes to the next sd2iec Disk, drawn back to the previous one and pushes the joystick, the first image is registered. So
3 functions in one switch. Actually, only 2 buttons are provided (in press) draws on the third disc 2 diodes both exchange lines to ground.
This is easier to use than to press 2 buttons simultaneously, and also for the joystick, the only way, because you can not simultaneously press in two different directions.
The sd2iec has 2 LEDs, one red and one green, indicating the status.
I wanted to keep the design of the C64 as originally, so I drilled new holes for the LEDs, but did this together combined with the power LED in a single, 3-color RGB LED. This sits there, where else, the power LED sits. Completely normal, even apart from that they now and then changes color.
On: blue (like the C64 background)
Read: Green
Error / Sleep: Red
disc replacement: yellow followed by green or red
Thus, it is not too bright and the colors are also visible, lit the blue part only if not red or green light.
left is the circuit for the RGB LED. Logic IC with a NOR function (Made up of four NAND) and switching transistors for each color and Vorwiederstände for each LED in the RGB-LED (4 pieces, because 2 times blue + red + green).
is what you get from finished.
From left to right: disc change button, SD card slot, Joystick 1, Joystick-2, on-off switch, socket for power and reset button .
In view of the spatial dimensions of my 2D maps as I do not use the talking kann.Ich depth of information but also more dimensions, so can I grab at you through an additional layer of information in the map. Here are Mind Maps multidimensional general, since I work for example with colors, symbols, and spatial localization, purely pack more info.
