SUBJECT Commdoore Free
Thanks so much for Commodore Free!
I'm not sure why it took me so long to
locate your site, but I'll be reading
all the back issues eventually.So, you
had some legal trouble with the first
3 issues? That brings up the curious
question of how you are able to use
the trademarked 'Commodore' name in
the title of your magazine? Would be
interested to know.
Back in the 80s, when I was a teen, I
used to program some for Uptime, a
monthly Commodore disk magazine. They
used to pay me a few hundred $$ for
each program they used. It was lots
of fun, and I miss those times. Thanks
to people like you that are keeping
Commodore alive!
Best,

Well I am using the Commodore name but
am hoping this doesnt breach copyright
or trade names as I always advertise
as Commodore free, Commodore can mean
other things like a rank in the navy
so can't really be copyrighted, all I
relay want to do is create a magazine,
also no one has hassled me about using
commodore and I have written to many
commodore companies so far I am ok

Dear Nigel Parker,
First off, thanks for supporting the
Shredz64 project and PSX64! It's
simply awesome there are so many
supporters out there of the Commodore
and other vintage machines. The
initial PSX64 PCB board has arrived -
it has been tested and works great.
While there are a few fixes to make,
none are major, and a batch order of
boards will soon be ordered. This
means the PSX64 will be ready to ship
soon! For more information, please
check out the latest Shredz64 blog

Tony the thanks is really to you
without people developing new hardware
and software the Commodore scene would
I suspect dry out, how many people
just want to use the same old hardware
and software forever!

From: Chris Syntichakis:
Hello,
I just read the 19th issue of the CF
and I like it.
I like VERY much that you asked
Robert Bernado about the c-one. I am
one of the 'victims' that got one of
them.In fact it should be called A-one
(A= Amstrad) as the Amstrad cpc core is
almost perfect (plays games/ has sound
emulator, you even can load SYMBOS)
The issues of c-one were so much ,
they drove crazy!!!! For example
un-compatibility with a some monitors.
I am glad that now they discover a
"patch" (wire on board) that solves
the compatibility with cartridge
ports. For me, my relationship with
the c-one is a kind of "love-hate".
One another thing I would like to
comment is your question to Robert:
"Do you think someone, like Jens
Schoenfeld, should offer to bail out
CMD" I am surprised you mention Jens,
as Jens had a lot of finance problems
with the c-one (he even sold his car),
the "resurrection" process of the
c-one is slowwwww. Jens wrote me "the
project (of c-1) is not dead", (I want
to believe this...)
Anyway, As I see you are in UK, how's
the c= community there? I m resident
in UK (Birmingham) since Sep'07 and so
far I found not one C= user there.
Regards
Chris (xc8/Bronx)

Chris Hello I am still waiting on the
c-one I was advised there may be a
version 2 and to wait for that, cant
remember who said that though, so I am
watching the developments.
At the time I originally had the
interview with Robert I didnt know
that Jens was in trouble, in fact your
mentioning it to me in the email was
the first I knew about it, I am sure
there is someone with enough funds to
take over the CMD product line,
although with new products coming out
it may not be worth the efforts as the
devices would need to be redesigned
As for C-one users I dont know of any
other UK user, its good that you are
uk based maybe we should have a
meet-up sometime to talk about
