i don't have a c64 in my masses of crap. I would have remembered something like a C64. I can ask my dad - wasn't it the other way around though? I remember giving someone a C64 at one point..
can anyone else shed any light on this Commodore mystery?

A long, long while ago I had a Commodore 64 at Jeff's house. Well, I lived there but moved to Colorado. I think the C64 came with him.

I seem to recall that it ended up in your hands, because you are a solid citizen and I think Jeff didn't know what to do with it. You don't still have that thing, do you? I bought "Mail Order Monsters" off eBay and it occured to me that playing it on a real C64 would be awesome. Before I checked eBay for a Commodore I just thought I'd check.

If you did not, in fact, ever acquire the thing, please ignore this thread and forget that my mind is playing tricks on me.
