  • C64OS v1.0 released!

    From Robert Bernardo@3:770/3 to All on Sun Sep 25 17:15:48 2022
    Greg Nacu has released C64OS v1.0, his new, text-based operating system for the Commodore 64 with the minimum requirements of a SD2IEC card drive and joystick/mouse.

    https://c64os.com/

    You can use its full-featured File Manager or go into the App Launcher. Over 25 utilities are available! For more information on getting started with C64OS, see

    https://c64os.com/c64os/gettingstarted/#requirements

    You can purchase C64OS in two different packages (bundles). The starter bundle at $59 Canadian (not including postage and any taxes) or the standard bundle at $64 Canadian (not including postage and any taxes). See

    https://c64os.com/c64os/#order

    Whether you buy the starter bundle or the standard bundle, you get the pre-installed C64OS on a SD card and a very well-done, printed User's Guide Supplement, among other items.

    For an up-to-date, comprehensive review of C64OS v1.0, go to Perifractic's Youtube video at

    They should have made it for VICE C128 mode. They could have used the
    extra 64 kBytes to speed up the system.

    But it is now sold out so, I guess they are making money on it.

    Vice C128 Mode could use some help!

    C64 OS v1.03 has been released and now has support for the scroll wheel on a mouse connected through a MicroMys/MouSTer and support for mounting .D64, .D71, and .D81 files. You can update the earlier version(s) of the OS by going to the download page at

    https://c64os.com/c64os/softwareupdates/

    Note: To update v1.0 to the latest update, you must first run the v1.01 update, then run the v1.02 update, and then run the last update.
