I agree, although I still like the old floppy drive.  Memories...

I've got a couple of Gotek's kicking around, and I'm aware of the Pi based emulators for the Commodore machines.  If the 64 grows on me then I'll probably go that way.

 cl> I have 2 C64s and the A1200.

I'd trade my A500 for an A1200, but the only person I know with an A1200 ain't parting with it (and I don't blame him at all).
