I actually bought my copy of Impossible Mission (what was I thinking), and one of my earliest forays into assembly language was when the copy protection stopped working and I had to figure out how to remove it. Those were the days!

A wonderful discussion, fellas! I've mentioned on-air to some of my fellow radio amateurs that I've got an interest in retro computing, and that there's an awful lot to study in a system like the C64. Question becomes: How deep do you want to dive? Plenty of hardware (I/O chips, 6502 CPU, VIC-II, SID, etc.) and software (including the ROMs) to delve into. And here's just one mind-blower: how many would believe that hardware emulation is built into that humble micro? A rudimentary chip is emulated in the C64's RS-232 implementation! And with its User Port, the C64 could probably be considered a (or _the_ ) RPi of its day.
