EPIC COMMODORE HARDWARE HAUL TESTING!

Описание: 🔥 EPIC COMMODORE HARDWARE HAUL TESTING! 🔥
Will this vintage computer treasure trove from last weekend's mother lode actually WORK? I'm about to find out!
Today I'm putting EVERY piece of Commodore hardware through its paces - from the legendary Commodore 128 with its mysterious 80-column mode to a pristine 1902 monitor I've never owned before. Plus I'm testing FIVE different disk drives to see if any survived the last 30+ years!
🖥️ What's Being Tested:
✅ Commodore 128 (my first time ever!)
✅ Commodore 64C
✅ 1902 Monitor with RGB and composite modes
✅ 1581 3.5" Drive (haven't touched one in 30 years!)
✅ 1571 Dual Drive
✅ 1541C, 1541, and 1541-II drives
✅ Bonus: SunCom mini joystick and mystery hardware!
🎯 You'll Learn:

How to properly connect a C128's dual video outputs
The difference between 40 and 80 column modes
Why the 1902 monitor was such a game-changer
How auto-booting on the C128 blew my C64-raised mind
Real-world testing of vintage drives (spoiler: surprising results!)

🔥 Nostalgic Moments:
Hear about my 1980s BBS "Temple of Syrinx" and why I had to borrow a friend's 1581 back in the day. Plus that magical moment when Swift Calc 128 auto-booted - "What kind of witchcraft is this?!"
