As Sharon Chambers perhaps the only supplier left to the serious C64 user it is perhaps just praise.

    Shaun M. Trujillo. Living Legacies: Recovering Data from 5¼” Floppy Disk Storage Media for the Commodore 64. A Master‟s Paper for the M.S. in I.S. degree. November, 2011. 97 pages. Advisor: Christopher Lee In an attempt to investigate the challenges of recovering and preserving digital objects from legacy systems this case study focuses on working with a particular storage medium and computing hardware. This study illustrates the physical and representational challenges that result from recovering data created with a Commodore 64 computer and stored on 5¼” floppy disks. A system for classifying types of digital objects found in the sample of recovered data was developed. This study contributes to the discourse of collecting institutions engaged in digital preservation and provides examples of ad hoc solutions for working through the challenges of recovering meaningful information from legacy systems. The issues that come to light in this study can be extended beyond the context of the Commodore 64 to include other types of digital resources and computing artifacts that will potentially cross the archival threshold in the near future.

  • PDF: Warpspeed Manual with Schematics
    CONGRATULATIONS! You now own the most useful and complete cartridge utility ever produced for the Commodore 64 and 128 computers: the Warp Speed™ Fast DOS Cartridge from Cinemaware. It contains the fastest Commodore-compatible DOS ever produced, allowing you to format disks, load, save, verify, and copy files up to ten times faster than before! In addition, Warp Speed includes: a full-featured machine language computer-and-disk-drive monitor/assembler, with up/down scrolling and an integrated sector editor; an expanded DOS wedge for convenience when using a disk drive; complete support for two or more disk drives, including a 30-second two-drive copier for making convenient backups of your unprotected disks; a reset button; and an "unnew" feature to restore BASIC programs, for recovering control of your computer when you experience a "crash". All Warp Speed functions work identically on the 64 and 128 in both 40- and 80-column modes, and are fully compatible with most commercial software, including many heavily protected programs that are incompatible with other cartridge utilities. They also work with most compatible disk drives, including the new Commodore 1581 floppy drives and several of the new hard disk drives available, as well as the MSD dual drive popular with many developers. Whether you are a beginner, a serious hacker, or a professional developer, you will find Warp Speed an indispensable aid which you may never remove from your computer once you have plugged it in! Fast Load/Save/Verify When the Warp Speed cartridge is inserted into the expansion port of your computer, the fast disk access routines are automatically engaged during all disk loads and saves.
