Hi,

Rendered in Octane in 5 min (downscaling hint used).
Never existed black version of legendary Commodore hardware.I really love this old hardware and going to model more of them, ;-))
It so sweet... I mean Datasette...

nice render but
I like ZX Spectrum more :) do that one
..it was cheaper than commodore so that's why I got one, and you could load from a plain old cassette player externally, those were the days, while a game loads and you touch any wire connected to the cassette player the game would die and you had to reload for another 10-20 minutes, talk about technology and utilizing such basic stuff
I always wanted commodore

Can you please add a hole in the middle where the toner screw were sitting?
I had a screw driver lying next to mine and used it to manually tone till i got the perfect yellow/blue scanlines when the header of the games were loading.
All my friends made holes in the plastic to get down to the toner as well, so Im sure this is a common thing which would bring even more flavouor to a classic.

My sister and I played that game a lot.
In the end we were competing on who could finish the game in first life quickest, then you know you are at the limit :D
