In hindsight, it would had been better to make a new drive for the C64, but that assumes Commodore predicting that the C64 would sell much much more than the VIC 20 did. Somewhere I read that the VIC-20 sold in about 5M units, while the C64 about 13M units (and 5M C128), which would make it not that sensible to make the 1541 to not be VIC-20 compatible as it were an upgrade path that I think quite a few persons took. > Adding an IEC port to a PET is more of an issue, I probably wouldn't > want it tying up the user port anyway. If you would only use IEC devices, you could use the IEEE port as an user port :) -- (\_/) Copy the bunny to your mails to help (O.o) him achieve world domination.
