    My cousin got divorced and all he got out of the deal was his Commodore VIC-20. Needless to say, he needs to make some cash, quick, so he's selling it to the highest bidder.

    Here are the details:

    CPU: MOS 6502, 1MHz

    RAM: 5K (3.5K for the user)

    Display: 22 X 23 text, 176 X 184, 16 colors max

    Ports: composite video, joystick, cartridge, user port, serial peripheral port

    Peripherals: cassette recorder, printer, modem, external floppy drive

    OS: ROM BASIC


    PM me with your bids. (PS: he will trade even up for a POS Gateway with Intel Celeron 1.4 GHz processor)

    Sweet Jesus - its been years since I've seen a Vic-20. Its hard to believe how much PCs have advanced.

    Commodore 64 came AFTER Pet. Your parents must have lied to you.

    I learned BASIC on a PET.
