RE: TIL: The Commodore 64 is undead

in #til8 years ago

They used to have a Radio Shack store on every corner, here in the states. I'm exaggerating, but they were quite common. You could get that adapter for pin plug to phono plug, walkie-talkies, coaxial cable; all kinds of fun electronics.

For some reason, they are not doing well and seem to be going the way of the dinosaur, but if you ever get the chance, I recommend visiting one to see what interesting stuff you might find.

Thanks for clarification :-) We have this kind of electronics-stores in germany, too. (They are called "Conrad".) And I love to go there, because I always find some cool stuff.
