CCS64 V3.5

CCS64 is a Commodore 64 Emulator for PC and also in the future other platforms. It was developed by Per Håkan Sundell. CCS64 is shareware. This means that the program is free to use and to copy, but if you like it and use it regularly you would register the program. CCS64 is a program that runs on your PC that turns your computer into an old Commodore 64 computer. This means that the program simulates, or rather emulates the old computer, enabling you to run most of the old software you had for that old machine, running it just like it would in the past. Of course there are some small differences compared to the real thing.

CNN.com readers recall the life-changing Commodore 64

I dont know how many of you are still around from when i put up my first ever website back on my CSUN.edu account (Dave’s Commodore 64 emulation page) back in 1995. For those of you who weren’t, it was a page and tribute to my favorite 8 bit computer the Commodore 64. It had emulators, games, and SID music files to download. Anyway,  has actually written a cool article that pays tribute to this machine, which first appeared in 1982. It was also the first computer i had that got me “online”, with my 300 baud modem calling BBSes back in 1986. :P
