Hehe, I grew up with Commodore's, and loved them. I started out with a Vic-20, went to the C64, then the C128. I finally ended up with a Commodore Amiga. All in all, I learned the most from the C64/128. I learned machine language early on, but the Commodore was the last thing I ever attempted assembly/machine language on (it's easy to deal with an Accumulator, an X and Y register, and 64k of memory, but today's machines are too much to deal with on the low end stuff, at least IMHO).
