Emulators
Have you ever dreamed to play an old Commodore 64 game on your PC? To write a program in that amazing BASIC V2? To see that great demo and listen to that indescribable sound? It's possible!
There exist several Commodore 64 emulators. They emulate the whole computer, including graphics and sound. You can use a virtual 1541 floppy and datassette. While the first emulators back in the 90's already emulated 90% of the hard- and software, the actual emulators are almost 100% perfect. They emulate not only the computer and disk drives, no, RAM expansions, cartridges, printers, stereo SID sound and RS232-ports. You can load and save snapshots, record sound and videos. The emulator VICE even supports the PET, VIC-20, Plus/4 and the C128! There exist emulators for all OS's and platforms, from Amiga to smartphones.
