Hello peoples, Thought i'd recommend a guy in the USA that makes cables and adapters for old retro computers including C64. Ive bought heaps of stuff off him and the quality is A-1. He has a 100% rating, give this guy a go his very genuine!

Edit: Just bought this for my laptop http://cgi.ebay.com.au/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rd=1&item=260176690546&ssPageName=STRK:MEWN:IT&ih=016

Would anyone have a spare C64 serial cable they would part with. I only have 1 Sad

Hi Tomz, I wanna start using the 1541-II on my lap top instead of my PC and thats the only adapter that works with laptops. Linux was a pain to get working so now the Laptop running Win98SE and Xp. Works a Cham.
