661076 2008-04-22 03:36:00 I've had the drive in my Amstrad change before :D

The Commodore 64 never had any problems though. Ahh the memories of cassette tape drives.

Ahh yes . . . . I remember sitting in front of my C64 or Atari 130XE typing page after sodding page of POKE commands for hours . . . . . Get to the end, type 'RUN' and get 'SYNTAX ERROR'

And this was before the days of checksums, so you couldn't even tell what line you'd mis-typed!!!

Awesome!! :p

You would be lucky to get 20 years of 100% error free operation out of a batch of Commodores, there's always one that will fail before it's 21'st birthday. Shoddy things.
