RE: C64 TOWER _________________________________________________________________ From djd16@cornell.edu (Diego J. Diaz) Organization Cornell University Date 6 Mar 1998 02:34:01 GMT Hi! Your idea is not that new! Some people already did so. Check Ilker Ficicilar's page: http://newton.physics.metu.edu.tr/~filker/cbm.html and especially the hardware hacks section. He is working on it. Also there is a document on somebody who put a C64 on a AT case. I am looking forward to try the same as I have more than one C64.
