Hoxs64 written by David Horrocks is a Commodore 64 emulator for Microsoft Windows 2K/XP/Vista/Seven (DirectX 9+)
The emulator substantially reproduces this legacy machine in minute detail.
Changelog:
- Added point and click raster position breakpoints. Breakpoints can be disabled with out being deleted.
- Added command window with assemble, disassemble and C64 memory map selection.
- Added disassemble window address finder.
- Added disassemble window mouse wheel scrolling (WinXP+).
- Randomisation of drive weak bits. Minor drive timing improvement.
- The application is marked as “DPI Aware”. All Windows GUI elements are DPI aware and will render smooth clear text when used with Windows 7′s “make text bigger” option. Only the windowed mode C64 bitmapped rendering remains non DPI aware as with previous versions.
- Added a work in progress breakpoint listview with context menu options “Show Address” and “Delete All Breakpoints”
- Illegal opcode tweak for demo ‘Errata’ by Emulamer.
- CRASHFIX: Fixed stack corruption crash when reading G64 files with custom speed zones.
- CRASHFIX: Fixed application lock up bug while drag scrolling the disassembly window.

A rare Commodore 65 on eBay.
from Wikipedia:
The Commodore 65 (also known as the C64DX, not to be confused with the Commodore SX-64 portable unit) was a prototype computer created by Fred Bowen and others at Commodore Business Machines (CBM) (part of Commodore International) in 1990–1991. The project was cancelled by CEO Irving Gould.
The C65 was an improved version of the Commodore 64, and it was meant to be backwards-compatible with the older computer, while still providing a number of advanced features close to those of the Amiga. It can be regarded as a counterpart to the Apple IIgs in providing 16-bit-equivalent technology on an 8-bit platform, though the IIgs used an 8/16 bit 65C816 processor. When Commodore International was liquidated in 1994, a number of prototypes were sold on the open market, and thus a few people actually own a Commodore 65. Estimates as to the actual number of machines found on the open market range from 50 to 2000 units.
As the C65 project was cancelled, the final 8-bit offering from CBM remained the triple-mode, 1–2 MHz, 128 kB (expandable), C64-compatible Commodore 128 of 1985.

The HxC Floppy Drive Emulator is a software and hardware system created by jfdn aka Jeff.
The aim of this project is to replace the floppy disk drive by an electronic device emulating the floppy disk drive (list of supported Computer/Hardware).
There are two differents emulators:
- A USB version which allows to connect the floppy disk drive interface of the computer to a PC via a USB cable.
- A SDCARD version which allows to emulate floppy disks which images are stored in a SDCARD.
Firmware SD HxCFloppyEmulator v1.7.2.0:
- Microchip PIC18F4620 Rev. B5 Silicon MSSP Module Errata applied (correct possible SDCard Init issues).
- SDCard layer reviewed / corrected / enhanced : Better SDCard compatibility / Error handling.
Release notes for the HxCFloppyEmulator software v2.0.6.0:
- PRE-RELEASE – IN DEVELOPMENT: HxCFloppyEmulator software v2.0.6.0 (Windows & Mac OS X support !)

A new version of the firmware for the interface 1541 Ultimate II is released. This version runs only on the 1541 Ultimate II cartridge (new fpga).
Version 2.5 includes some new features:
- File viewer.
- Selectable colors in user interface.
This version also includes some fixes for nasty memory allocation bugs that existed when using USB sticks. Removal of a USB device is now at least a lot safer. Also, some file system bugs were fixed.
Version 2.5+ includes some new features:
The ‘plus’ version of 2.5 including a special 7-voice audio engine. This version is based on the same 2.5 with the bugfixes and a special FPGA build can it only supports ONE floppy drive, in favor of extra audio functionality.

SNDH archive v4.0 released. 121 SNDH-files added or updated!
Ever since the birth of the Atari ST, different chip music formats have had different ways to use them. If you are coding a chip music player for the Atari ST you would have to use dozens and dozens of special ways to replay music.
But in the mid 90′s, BDC of Aura crew became tired of this inelegant system and decided to fix the issue once and for all. He then created the ‘SNDH’ file format. SNDH is actually the original songfile and replaycode with a header bolted on top of the music and replayer. The header has a unified calling interface no matter what type of chip music is hidden beneath it, and it has extended datas about the music.
