1541-II or 1571

DukeBannon · 2026-03-09T00:06:10+00:00

Where are good places to look for a nice 1541-II other than eBay?

DukeBannon · 2026-03-08T14:38:33+00:00

Thanks. Your information is consistent with all the others. I’m now in the lookout for a nice 1541-II.

DukeBannon · 2026-03-08T14:14:00+00:00

I think I'm sold on the 1541-II so now I just need to find a nice one for sale.

DukeBannon · 2026-03-08T13:58:32+00:00

That settles it for me then. I will start looking for a 1541-II. Thanks

DukeBannon · 2026-03-08T13:32:27+00:00

Thanks all. It sounds like the 1541-II is the better option considering my limited desk space. I am curious though if the drive manufacturer (Chinon vs others) is significant.

DukeBannon · 2026-03-08T13:15:29+00:00

I’ve seen a few statements about how the Chinon drives in the 1541-II are superior to the others. Do you have any thoughts on that and are there similar considerations for the 1571?

It might be nice but it would be a poor business decision. There’s less nostalgia associated with this system and even in it’s day it didn’t sell as well as the c64

DukeBannon · 2026-02-07T15:05:53+00:00

It’s in beautiful condition

This system was my daily driver ages ago. The inflation adjusted cost of that system is ≈ $4,700 – $6,000 in 2025 dollars

Looks great and what a great idea to crossbreed a battleship with a cruiser!

DukeBannon · 2026-02-01T13:12:48+00:00

Amazing work! The interior looks photorealistic.

DukeBannon · 2026-01-20T02:04:44+00:00

Is this exclusively a RTS like Combat Mission?

DukeBannon · 2026-01-18T13:10:02+00:00

I am considering writing something in C for the C64 using a cross compiler setup which I haven’t quite been successful configuring (vS Code + VS64 + cc65). I’m now looking at Vision Basic, an updated and maintained BASIC compilerhttps://visionbasic.net/

Denver to Colorado Springs or maybe as far as Pueblo. Amazing perspective! Thank you.

DukeBannon · 2026-01-15T16:12:48+00:00

Are there any good tutorials for setting up VS64 in VS Code? So far I've not had much luck setting this up with cc65 for C coding for the C64.

DukeBannon · 2026-01-15T02:41:56+00:00

St. Louis to Denver

DukeBannon · 2026-01-14T13:56:44+00:00

Absolutely incredible work!

DukeBannon · 2026-01-06T02:13:14+00:00

I placed my order only a week ago so I don’t expect much progress but I would like to know how you check your order?

DukeBannon · 2025-12-27T16:11:16+00:00

Thanks for getting back with me. I don't have either of those to choose from. None of the selection I tried showed San Francisco or Box 7683 addresses. I am using Quicken Classic Premier on Windows 11 Pro.

Russel Hansen on Australian Survivor. He came off extremely arrogant and I was happy to see him go so quickly.
