They should definitely sell it to CMD. CMD has proven to be supporters o= f the C64/128 family and I expect them to continue well into the next century. Visicorp may move on to bigger and better things and leave us behind. Also, CMD has the expertise in dealing with the 64/128. Whoever ends up with it should *definitely* manufacture replacement parts, especially VICII's and SID's. As for manufacturing, I'd like to see an improved version of the C64 or 128 made. This is where the idealism sets in. How about getting the kinks out of the C65, and updating it for the 90's with great graphics, a 20mhz (or more!) CPU, more memory, and a tower case. Then, update the UART to a modern speed, maybe with a FIFO buffer. This would be the best of both worlds since it would be a great internet tool as well as be= ing able to run C64 software. I can also see a built-in 1581 and 1571 or their high-density equivalents. I'm not sure how much this would cost, but I can see it for less than $1000. With a computer that cheap that hooks directly to your TV, you not only have a new C64, but you have a "net-computer", a low-cost workstation, a video game system, and a home computer rolled into one. I'm sure Mr. and Mrs. Consumer aren't ready to shell out their money for something that doesn't run Win95, but with maybe an updated "GEOS 3.0" or "GEOS97" it could run circles around a PC.

When available URL addresses are also listed, for alternate access. I will try to keep this list as current and accurate as possible, so that it can be a useful resource for users of the newsgroup. PLEASE cooperate and send E-mail with any corrections and updates. If you uncover a site not listed, tell me so that it can be added. If a site has closed or no longer carries CBM software, let me know and it will be deleted. =3D=3D=3D=3D=3D To use this list on a UNIX system, just type 'ftp ', where is any of the Host or FTP sites listed below. Use 'anonymous' as your login, and your E-mail address for the password. You can change and list directories with 'cd' and 'dir', respectively, and download files to your system using 'get'. Be sure to specify either 'binary' if you are getting a program, or 'ascii' for a text file before you begin the download. =3D=3D=3D=3D=3D In addition to the sites listed below, which have CBM software, there are hundreds of other FTP sites on INet with interesting files covering most every other topic imaginable. Take some time to seek out and explore these other sites and their files too.
