Ahhh, the Amstrad CPC464. How fondly I remember mine, sat on a rickety old table in the corner of the living room, with its green screen (couldn''t afford the colour version).
|
||||
|
||||
Learned my first assembly code on it. Even my mother loved it, and was often to be found playing a fruit machine game on it, for hours on end. I wish I still had it, if only for nostalgia reasons.

text: George Johnson - uncanny how similar our experiences are. My brother had a Dragon 32 and then I got a CPC 464 - I loved it and spent many a hour writing programs for it. The 464 and the ZX81 are the two reasons I got into IT, now I''m an Oracle DBA too!

text: I well remember getting it. We had had a Dragon 32 and my old man wanted an "upgrade" and bought a 464. I had no games and Amstrad had just started an offer to give away 12 games after we had bought ours. So I old man went down to Rumbelows ( electrical store ) and demanded the games, even though he was technically not entitled and he got them! I then managed to convince 4 mates to get CPCs and we had a good little trading ring going for well over 3 years! CPC was the first time me and my old man had ever played with computer databases, most likely responsible for me working in IT as an Oracle DBA! Gryzor, Glider Rider and Enduro Racer. Level 9 games had to be some of the best going.

It was my very first computer when I was about eight or nine years old! I remember my mam let me load a game, and I had time for a bath while it was loading. Me and my brother used to insist that my mam let us bring it to our grandmas on a weekend and it wasn't exactly a light thing to carry.\
|
||||
My bro got a black marker pen and scribbled over all the keys the little sod.\
|
||||
Its in the attic now and I'm at the family home for the weekend, I'm trying to convince my mam to let me bring it down!

text: I was 14 y.o. when my CPC 464 arrived to my life, it was my first computer, as the color monitor was very expensive I have one which used green phosphorus, it was an incredible machine. I used to spend too many hours with two games "La Abadia del Crimen" and "Saboteur2". The PC's can't provide you the same feelings, neither the emulators, if you have used one CPC is forever, is in your heart and mind. Thanks to Mr. Sugar for giving us the CPC, one dream with a computer body.

My brother spilt milk on our family 464 and I got the blame for it. The ripples are still being felt to this day.

The best computer ever! Remember these games like Harrier Attack, Galatic Plague, Roland on the Ropes/Caves, Bridge It, Scaletric.\
|
||||
There was nothing quite like waiting 5-20 minutes for a game to load!

This one was my first computer ever! I was given one with a green monitor and a bunch of Amsoft tapes (Admiral Graf Spee, Galactic Plague, etc) on 1986. I barely used it for anything different that computer games, but it was a very good computer indeed. For years I could play conversions from my favourite arcade titles for less than $9 per game.
|
||||
|
||||
Those who want to dump their tapes onto TZX or CDT files (emulator friendly formats) must create 8 bit mono VOC files (GoldWave is very good at it) and then encode them with the Samp2CDT or VOC2TZX utilities.

Is there an online resource where I can download games? How would I get them onto audio tape?

In fact i'm just about to go up into my loft and try to find it, and see if it's still working! Anyone know of anywhere I could get hold of the music synth or vocal synth for the CPC464?

text: No doubt it was a great computer. Not only had it allowed so many people to discover computers (for the price of a single C64, you had the monitor and the tape recorder), it also had the best softwares, an excellent Basic and it was one of the most solid computer ever... I've got mine since 1986 and it's still working fine. Thanks to Alan Sugar who made the computer technology affordable for anyone !
