July 25th, 2012

Retrotext has made a interesting modding of a not working Commodore 64 with a Raspberry Pi.
For this project Retrotext has used the following things:
- Commodore C64 with a working Keyboard.
- Raspberry Pi
- Keyrah USB interface.
- 4-way USB port.
- Three RCA connectors.
- Ethernet and HDMI cable.
- On/off Switch.
- Power Supply and some other items.
The Commodore 64 runs under the Vice emulator (Linux) on the Raspberry Pi so we can play our favorites games.
About the Resperry Pi …
The Raspberry Pi is a small, inexpensive computer that is capable of running tasks like most other PCs, however it is smaller, a lot smaller in fact it measures 85.60mm x 53.98mm x 17mm , almost the size of a credit card and costs £25. It has an ARM11 chip at its heart, which finds its origins in early UK microcomputers, notably first in the Acorn Electron, the brain child of Mk14, ZX80 and 81s’ Chris Currie and Austrian physicist Herman Hauser.
