Posiblemente uno de los mejores ordenadores que he tenido. En este sistema se lanzaron grandes juegos como Shadow of the Beast o Blood Money. Una autentica joya.

Please take a look at www.retrocomputers.eu for more info about my retro computer collection.
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.
The Commodore 64 was probably the dream computer for most kids in the early 1980ies. It outperformed most of the contemporary home-computers when it came to graphics and sound in 1982, however the BASIC interpreter was anything but impressive.
Lived in a veritable desert when it came to computer technology in in 1983, if memory serves me correct the VIC 20 me and my four year older brother got for Christmas in 1982 was bought in Stockholm, the capital of Sweden, 450 km south of us, we were a bit lucky when a local store mostly sold office equipment like type writers and office computers decided to also sell home computers in form of Commodore 64. My brother and his friend spent much time during the summer of -83 there playing the limited amount of games that were available at the time, then later nagging on our parents to get one for Christmas. So by using most of my and my brothers savings, and selling the VIC 20 we got our precious Commodore 64 for Christmas in 1983.
A few years later we also acquired a 1541 disk drive, as far as I can remember it costed as much as the computer had in 1983. Today you get a quite decent laptop for that kind of money.
I sold mine in 1989, so this is not the one I had back then.
My Dad's second Opel Commodore, a GS, taken in the mid-eighties. From some angles it could almost've been American. There weren't many car manufacturers who didn't fit "Rostyle" wheels (after "R"ubery "O"wen) to at least one of their vehicles in the seventies. They were pressed steel but made to look like the Mag wheels of the day.
My Dad's Opel Commodore taken from my Sister's bedroom window in the early eighties. Even the repairs on next-door's MkIII Cortina had been repaired. I cut the hedge the following day!

1930s postcard from the Hotel Commodore, located on the SW corner of North Capitol and F Streets NW, across from Union Station. It might take some effort to recognize this building as the current Phoenix Park Hotel, where the Dubliner is located. The building has been much modified, with an extra floor added. Note that it was common for postcards of this era to show hotels in isolation, as if no surrounding buildings existed.

Siguiendo con la gran nevada este febrero en Nueva York. Digo "gran" porque personalmente no estoy nada acostumbrado a esa cantidad de nieve!

One more shot of the snow in NY this days. For me too much because never snows in Barcelona!

This was a banner I was going to use for a web design but never ended up using. May be useful to someone. This is from a Commodore 64 computer someone gave me. The Commodore 64 originally came out in 1982 but I am not sure which model this one is.

For 1980 this turbo six Commodore was offered in the aftermarket. It says a maximum of 85 will be built per month. I have no idea if they came close to this goal.
1980 HDT Holden Commodore at the Shannon's Insurance Eastern Creek Classic, which is a get together of all registered auto clubs in the State of New South Wales. Over 2000 cars, bikes, buses and ex-military vehicles attended this year's show.
These cars were modified at GMH's request by Peter Brock, a successful Australian racing driver, who improved the handling and engine performance of the flagship of the Commodore range, the SLE. These cars are highly prized and collectors will pay big $ to get one.
