Title: Selling a Commodore 1084S-D1 and Commodore 1080 monitor
Post by: Arkhan on March 01, 2011, 01:19:48 PM: I have both of these for sale. The picture quality is very nice on both.

THe 1084S-D1 is the one picture that has "C= sucks dick" written on it. This will be removed before you get your hands on it, so no worries!

I'm asking 75$ for the 1080 (Its the better of the two monitors as far as tube/picture quality), and 65$ for the 1084S-D1, or best offer!

I will sell both together for 125$

I will not ship overseas, not that you would want me to because it will cost you an idiotic amount to ship them.

I will ship to Canada/Mexico/anywhere else that counts as touching the US of A, just be warned, you may find yourself getting hit with a kind of high shipping bill!

Both monitors work perfect and the reason I am selling them is

1) The 1080s been sitting on a shelf since CCAG 2010
2) I got a neat RCA flat screen CRT thats slightly bigger screen wise, and takes up less space. I like it!
3) Having a 1084 and a 1080 on shelves = less space for D&D books, and I dont like it

I will include power cables.

Rejoice!

Now is the time to nab two happy RGB screens.

lol srsly?

when, so I can get the C= hate propaganda off the 1084.

I have no use for these bastards on my shelf and will probably end up locating more of them between now and 6 months. I always happen across 1084s. These are my like, 7th and 8th ones!

All but one have been sold to good homes. One just up and died mid Hydlide 2 one day. That sucked.

It was after you dissed C64 whilst lauding the MSX. ;)

Indeed. Currently listening to the sublime The Sacred Armour of Antiriad

(http://junk.tg-16.com/images/antiriad_iron_maiden.jpg)

Come on, Ark: what's not to love about C64? MSX games don't use the Iron Maiden font, do they?
Title: Re: Selling a Commodore 1084S-D1 and Commodore 1080 monitor
Post by: Arkhan on March 24, 2011, 12:34:59 PM: That game was pretty awesome, but it doesnt help the C64 too much.

MSX didn't need to ripoff 80s metal bands to draw players in.

they used sweet games.

heres what I think of that stupid f*cking computer.

Yes it was fully working before I beat it down.

and yes, the SID WAS DESTROYED.

Then, I actually mailed it to some a$$hole I don't like from the C= scene. He whined about it on IRC for an entire day. I laughed.

Forgive me, but tears are flooding my keyboard as I type this. DEAR LORD, WHAT DID THAT C=64 EVER DO TO DESERVE THIS. WHY HAVE YOU FORSAKEN IT? WHY?

On that, as luck would have it, look at what I just happen to be listening to right now:

Title: Re: Selling a Commodore 1084S-D1 and Commodore 1080 monitor
Post by: Arkhan on March 26, 2011, 03:14:14 PM: it was great when I smashed the keyboard initially with the hammer. keys flew f*cking everywhere.

I found keys like 6 months later behind my dresser I was like oh man!

they went EVERYWHERE.

then I bashed it some more, and took the drill to it

it ruled.

This isnt the only C64 I bashed to hell. I also threw a 1084 off a roof once. That ruled also.

Post by: esteban on March 27, 2011, 04:46:37 AM: I actually played Double Dragon on Atari 2600 back in the day (my friend received the game as a gift).

That didn't inspire either us to smash the 2600, though.

I eventually "sold" (gave) him my NES for a few dollars. He was grateful.

Arkhan, perhaps there is a better way to channel all your energy--you could crochet blankets, or something.

:)
Title: Re: Selling a Commodore 1084S-D1 and Commodore 1080 monitor
Post by: Arkhan on March 27, 2011, 06:44:29 AM: the atari 2600 Double Dragon is a f*cking gem compared to the C64 one.

The 2600 one has MUSIC.

whodathunk it.

Yeah but what would you rather have for games, a PCE + SCD, or an Amiga?

Post by: nat on April 07, 2011, 03:02:38 PM: Oh, a Duo for sure. No contest.

The Amiga was a great computer that was ahead of it's time, however, just like the Apple IIGS. The big problem with the IIGS was the slow CPU, but this was quickly remedied when CPU replacements like the TransWarpGS and ZipGS came out.

Post by: Tatsujin on April 07, 2011, 05:01:05 PM: The Amiga could output great stuff if in the right hands. Unfortunately it wasn't in the right hands for most of the time.
