Hi Yorck,..

Considering my background, I'd have to agree, this msg is more meaningful. ;)> 

If you want info on getting your C64 repaired or replaced, check out the news
group comp.sys.cbm sometime.  There's usually someone selling off one or more
C64's, 128's and misc. equipment.

My (wide) attempt at the original breadbox model is here:
http://users.breworld.net/m/martin.atkins/asciiart/art/electronic.htm
(at the bottom of the page)

I should probably move the computer pics out of the electronic section into
their own... in fact a few of those things are questionably electronic items
at all :)

Kind Regards,
