A Restoration, cleaning and maintenance on a Commodore 64 c. I have used the keys from a broken Commodore Vic=20, to replace some of the original keys of the Commodore 64 c. I used bleach to clean the keys, and an air compressor to blow the keys dry, and remove the dust from the parts. This Commodore 64 c is fully working at this moment. The most photo's of this restoration, are taken with my smartphone in stead of the Nikon D5200. The Commodore 64, the Commodore Vic=20, and the Commodore 64c, have the same keyboard mechanism. Only the color of the keys are different.

Statue of Matthew C. Perry. Commodore Matthew Calbraith Perry commanded the expedition to negotiate a treaty with Japan in 1853-54, bringing the Japanese into commercial and diplomatic relations with the West after more than two centuries of isolation. Commodore Perry's long Navy career included service in the Mediterranean suppressing the Barbary pirates, service on the anti-slavery patrols in West Africa, and commander of naval forces in the gulf of Mexico during the Mexican War of 1846-48. Perry was very concerned with the education of naval officers and helped develop an apprentice system that helped establish the curriculum at the U.S. Naval Academy. With the advent of the steam engine, he became a leading advocate of modernizing the U.S. Navy and came to be considered The Father of the Steam Navy. The statue was commissioned by financier August Belmont and his wife Caroline, daughter of the Commodore. It was created by the prominent 19th centure American sculptor John Quincy Adams Ward.

One of my hobbies is collecting retro-computers, focusing on computers made by Atari. I have currently have eleven different Atari-models, three from Commodore and one other model in my collection.

 

When I sold my Commodore 64 back in 1989 for buying my first Atari ST I kept a couple of disks with personal items on them, thinking that maybe someday I could transfer them to some more modern hardware or something. So in 2011 i finally came across this Commodore 128D at a real bargain price. It came with plenty of games and extra hardware. The fan was really noisy though, so I replaced it with a modern one to silence it.

The Commodore Vic-20 was the first computer to sell more than one million units, and it was the first colour computer to break the $300 price barrier. The "20" in the name was just as arbitrary as the machine having only 5K of RAM and a 22 column display. Initial retail price in 1981? $299.95 US.

The Commodore was formally the Queen's Hotel in Cobh - it is the oldest purpose built hotel in ireland built in the mid 19th century. It was the location where the survivors from the Luisitania were brought after there rescue. Passengers from all the White Star Liners sailing for America would have stayed here!

Marsh Commodore (Precis ceryne ceryne) is found from December to June, from two distinct broods that overlaps during autumn. Usually seen on flowers and food plants near water. Sits on grass stems from where it chases other butterflies.
