As a grumpy old man, it restores my faith in humanity that young people are developing insane skillsets and then using them to restore computers like the old C64.

The funny thing is that the cheap 20$ oscilloscope has more processing power in its CPU than the old C64 :D

So proud that there are still young people enjoying vintage computers and electronics, and try to use them, fix them, and enjoy them!

When I was a kid, my dad brought a 64. He's gone now, but this brought back many memories, thank you :)

The C64 was my childhood computer from 1985. It makes me really happy to see younger generations embrace the hardware. Please keep making videos on the Commodore 64!

That DIY oscilloscope is such a godsend for anyone wanting to get into board repair on the cheap.

I owned a Commodore 64C when I was a kid. It's so nice to see people like you keeping these charming old machines alive. Thanks.

It's superb seeing the younger generation repairing electronics from the past. You got a new sub

As a 45-year-old linguist, artist and teacher of the German language, I can only say that, firstly, I am very glad that the world has such young and wise people, and secondly, that I watch this video with amazement, because I do not understand anything about this issue. Just watching this video is an amazing feeling.

I grew up with a c64 in my bedroom (was born in '79) and I gotta say Im a bit jealous of how capable you are with this when I never in my wildest dreams would have thought to ever take the thing apart. Cool video! Smart presenter!

[blucbra]

it's good to see young people being interested in retro machines and understanding what's going in inside them, thumbs up!

[kokomal]

Nice to see a young person into retro computers and electronics. Big thumbs up!

[KarlStevens]

Well done - so glad to see someone younger using and repairing C64s. Looking forward to more from your channel

[noahblitzy]

Simply Mindblowing to see youngsters take up the Solder at this day and age. Alot of effort has gone into this video. Really appreciate it.

I think I'm around your age - I'm really glad to see there are more people obsessing over machines older than ourselves. It's a wonderful learning tool and hobby.

It warmed this old mans heart to see a young person restore an example of his first computer. Thank you. It would great to hear sometime how you came to be passionate about our digital past.

It always amazes me to see young people play with technology older than themselves. He makes feel better for our future. I'm a video game programmer and I often feel sad that young programmers didn't start with BASIC and machine code like I did. I'm also very impressed with the electronics knowledge that Eleonora already has.

[lukasgayer]

Wow, a young lady with technical skills and passion for retro computing! What a pleasant surprise! Great job! These machines deserve to be kept alive :)

[justinkovacik]

Sayaka. Nice job. Im 49 and i used these computers in grade school. Its nice you have an interest in this. I also recently acquired an oscilloscope and am exploring the world of electronics.

Being that a C64 was one of my first computers as a child, it brings a tear to my eye seeing people like yourself bring them back to life.
