| Commodore 64C serial
number DA5 657797 B1 made in Germany. |
|
| The 64C was the
64 given a makeover including a more modern case
and a lighter colour but was otherwise almost identical
to the breadbin versions. There is an additional
switch at the back, marked L-H. This appears to
be connected to the RF output but is blanked off
on one of my 64Cs and seems to have no effect on
the others. By the time of its launch in 1987 sales
of the 64 were already in decline. Newer, bigger
computers were coming onto the market and so the
64C was not a great success. |

| At the rear is
a cartridge slot for games and programming aids,
a switch to adjust the tv signal, rf output to a
tv, rgb output to tv or monitor, the serial port
for disk drives and printers, the datassette connection
and an RS-232 connector for other peripherals. |

two ports for joysticks, paddles, light
pens and light guns. To the right are
the on/off switch and the power connection. |
