Since you don’t get that far with a Commodore machine today, I use a Raspberry Pi as my desktop computer. I guess a certain minimalism is expressed here, which already fascinated me about the C64.
Especially the large variety of available operating systems opens a wide range of possibilities to me. Besides using Raspbian as the Linux derivative of my choice, I concentrate on emulating older systems. Also here my main focus is on classic Commodore systems. Above all I have to mention Amibian, which I use to emulate the classic Amiga 1200, which I owned in my childhood.
Currently i own:
- Raspberry Pi Model B
- Raspberry Pi 2 Model B
- Raspberry Pi 3 Model B
- Raspberry Pi 3 Model B+
- … and dozens of SD cards 🙂
