Commodore 64 Gold Edition on Ebay.
from Richard Lagendijk Homepage:
This a special edition of the Commodore C64, celebrating the 1.000.000th sale of the C64 in Germany. This is one of the most desirable Commodore items. There are about 300 golden Commodore C64 produced. The numbers from 1.000.000 until 1.000.100 were for the staff of the Commodore factory Braunschweig.
The rest was given to hard- en software companies, magazine-publishers and distributors. The C64 is a computer system with a keyboard, external power-supply and a motherboard. On the motherboard you will find a MOS 6510 processor, RAM / ROM memory, MOS 6569 VIC-II video chip, MOS 6581 SID sound chip and twice a MOS 6526 CIA. PAL version.

Retrotext has made a interesting modding of a not working Commodore 64 with a Raspberry Pi.
For this project Retrotext has used the following things:
- Commodore C64 with a working Keyboard.
- Raspberry Pi
- Keyrah USB interface.
- 4-way USB port.
- Three RCA connectors.
- Ethernet and HDMI cable.
- On/off Switch.
- Power Supply and some other items.
The Commodore 64 runs under the Vice emulator (Linux) on the Raspberry Pi so we can play our favorites games.
About the Resperry Pi …
The Raspberry Pi is a small, inexpensive computer that is capable of running tasks like most other PCs, however it is smaller, a lot smaller in fact it measures 85.60mm x 53.98mm x 17mm , almost the size of a credit card and costs £25. It has an ARM11 chip at its heart, which finds its origins in early UK microcomputers, notably first in the Acorn Electron, the brain child of Mk14, ZX80 and 81s’ Chris Currie and Austrian physicist Herman Hauser.

Autopsy:
The SIO2SD is a device that allows you to load games/applications into any 8-bit Atari XL/XE computers via SIO interface from SD cards.
This version is like the original SIO2SD (based to latest schematic “version 2″) but in a smaller form with some improvements by Panos.
Panos improvements:
- As for the cpu the latest “low consumption” ATMega32A microcontroller in smd form.
- The 74LVC245 who guarantees good data transfer between the microcontroller and SDcard, in proper voltage levels also.
- New 47nf capacitors for better button response.
- Extra resistor and capacitor added in output of low dropout voltage regulator, for better voltage stability particularly at “no load” condition. As result of that is much higher reliability and compatibility with more SD cards.
- New tactile switches with smooth feeling for more comfortable use.
- Push on-Push off type SD connector.

The HxC Floppy Drive Emulator is a software and hardware system created by jfdn aka Jeff.
The aim of this project is to replace the floppy disk drive by an electronic device emulating the floppy disk drive (list of supported Computer/Hardware).
There are two differents emulators:
- A USB version which allows to connect the floppy disk drive interface of the computer to a PC via a USB cable.
- A SDCARD version which allows to emulate floppy disks which images are stored in a SDCARD.
Firmware SD HxCFloppyEmulator v1.7.1.2:
- Drive A <> Drive B constant polling issue corrected (Atari ST).
- Better SD Card error handling.
Firmware SD HxCFloppyEmulator v1.7.1.1:
- New embedded setting menu : To access this menu remove the SDCard and press the select button.
- By this menu you can:
- Change the floppy Interface mode.
- Change the bitrate.
- Change the track step mode.
- Enable/disable the drive B.
- Enable/disable the step sound.
- Set the user interface sound volume.
- Set the backlight timing.
- Set the standby timing.
- Check the software and bootloader version (integrity test included).
- Clear/reset the settings and reset the Emulator.
- Exit this menu…
- SD Card: Issue with some sd card corrected : Incompatibility with some SD chipset corrected.
- Write support: Timing for MFM / FM 250/300/500KBits/s write support readjusted. DataMark supported : 0xFB,0xF8 (deleted data mark), 0xFA,0xF9. HFE file format enhanced : Track 0 Side 0 & Track 0 Side 1 track write mode can be different from the others tracks.
- New track seek algorithm: Faster track seek/settle time -> Faster Loading time !
- Flip disk function: the disk image can now be flipped (reverse side 0side 1).
- Bad track number at power up corrected (E-mu Emulator I/II, SP1200, Linn/Forat 9000…)
- Experimental “Rev2″ HFE support : Correct some issue with some Amiga games/demos.
- Lots of internals code optimization…
