Is this place using a 'Commodore 64' as a web server?

LOL- Feels like it sometimes dont it. More like a timex sinclair.

LOL

I loved my old Commodore puter from days past. I actually programmed neat games into it!

Though that was funny, I bet the lag was due to a flood of concern and sorrow for someone.

Its not slow for subscribers, just for poor ACs

Those pc's were not cheap! [link to www.putfile.com]

I also noticed bringing up a GLP page is like pulling teeth.

Actually, it's a IBM 5100. Some guy from the future told me about it. He said that GLP is very popular in 2312.

If by their server capacity shall ye know them, then on that basis, GLP is not serious about having a serious web presence.

It uses the excess processing power from 100s of thousands of Commodore 64s.

As u can c they are old and have to be manually operated! i

They need to add more tubes to their internet.

LMAO - my first 'PC' evah...

Tape sync download.. oh shit...

4KB memory - yay!

At least it's not a TRaSh-80 made by Tandy. We had those pieces of crap at school for our joke of a "computer lab" back in the mid to late 80's while the more affluent schools had the latest IBM PC's with Windows and the first Macs(the ones with the black&white screen and floppy drive in the little rectangular box).

Tape drive, yeah!

hahahahah best laugh of all saturday. cheers.

It's a HeathKit

I ran a C-64 right up till 2000ad, 2400 baud modem, right up till the last local BBS went down. Everything on the Freenet was switching over to the Internet. The Novaterm 9.5 terminal program and the Final Cartrige III really kicked the C-64 up a notch...


Here is a screenshot of the FC-III

Hey, thanks for that link. I remember units like that. That was a dream-machine. I even used pagemaker.

crickey, that was eons ago.

No, because that would be faster than what is used.

I had me a VIC 20...
Now there was a machine!

Why not? Web servers are becoming commoditized and are about as technologically sophisticated, these days, as ball-point pens.

First I had used Atari 128Kb Ram, and next first PC, whith hard disc 10 MB, and I had to park this disc, when I finished work. It was machines.

zzzzzzzzzzzz

A Commodore 64 probably runs better than you think. The current fastest Windows Vista machine is really not so fast, since encryption as well as software bloat makes a Pentium Core 2 Duo into something closer to an Intel 386. Linux installation probably solves these panicky DRM related problems.

Agreed™

I walked on air when I added 1 Mb of RAM to my old Amstrad PC. Those were the days.

Seems to be.

That would be my guess!
