I'm really enjoying the outpouring of generosity and feedback in the survey responses. I can't wait to write up the results! #mega65 https://tally.so/r/mDk4pZ

🚨Please take the #mega65 survey! This survey is for anyone even a little bit interested in the MEGA65, whether or not you have one. We're shooting for 400 responses. Thank you!

Boosts appreciated!

💫 Dan's #mega65 Digest for August 2023: The MEGA65 Community Survey!

A call to action, and two fun treats from my childhood and maybe yours.

Am I alone in being interested in understanding / reverse engineering #retrocompiting software OTHER THAN games?

If I'm not alone, what stuff would you want to see migrated to maintainable #mos6502 #assembly code, probably #ca65 , and MAYBE ported to the #commanderx16 or the #mega65.

So many great options for programming your MEGA65!

Okkk, I am 70% done with uncluttering my space enough to do the 2nd #mega65 video!

The #MEGA65 is truly the 8-bit home computer of the future! 🤩

Arrived in the middle of the #MEGA65 keynote :commodore:
#c64 #retrocomputing

Come see me fumble my way through presentations and demos of the #MEGA65 at Pacific Commodore Expo NW, this weekend June 24th and 25th. 11 am - 5 pm, free, no tickets required.

I'm currently cramming my slides at the last minute, so my talk will probably end up taking the full six hours. 😜

A two-parter on programming your MEGA65 with your PC. Excited to show off XC=BASIC in this issue!

💫 Dan's #mega65 Digest for April 2023: Fun with PETSCII!

A deep dive into the Commodore character set and PETSCII string encoding. Also some trivia I didn't know about the charset pre-C64, and how to bring it back to the MEGA65!

@shanselman Ask him about the #Mega65, and what he thinks of ‘Commodore’s’ future…

@steeler Very nice. My original C64 doesn’t work but I can’t bring myself to get rid of it. One day I will resurrect it for a project. Until then I have an Ultimate 64 and a TheC64 maxi. Oh and I recently got my #Mega65 which I haven’t had nearly enough time to play with yet. All exciting stuff still happening in the 21st Century!

This is my first time doing a Mandelbrot set program, was pleased to finally learn it. It's easy!

Well, now I'm also getting a Mega65

#Mega65 #Commodore64

Do I actually need a new laptop if I could for the money a new toy?

I could also attempt to repair my two #C64 but I'm a) to stupid and b) I use their status as an excuse to look into a #Mega65

Some people have said the design of the #Mega65 is inelegant. But it’s faithful to history, and clearly #Commodore intended the computer to have a joystick rest.

Moin zusammen.... es war etwas in der Post... Wartezeit 1 Jahr, 3 Monate nach Bestellung..... demnächst mehr wenn ausgepackt, aufgebaut und in Betrieb genommen.....
