I finally got a 1541 drive so I can actually start using my C64. But it needs some work first. Well, that didn't go like I expected. I don't know when I'll get back to this but I do think I have some good leads on possible repairs. This is one of those computers I really need to get some more seat time with so I can start to get comfortable with it.
