A lot of people are knocking the dust off their C64s and getting back on-line with them. Using WiModems and UIED/SD cards as drives. Using CCGMS to call all the Commodore boards again.

It watched Me as I used the 486, and the XP.
My C=64's back end has a Super Snapshot cartridge in the right, and a Omenitronics (?) RS-232 in the left sockets on the back.
(Not in the room to see how to correctly spell the Brand Name of the RS-232
adapter).
The uIEC/SD goes in the cassette slot. So I am sure you can get one and use it with the hardware you are already using.

It uses the cassette port for power, you can also use a usb cable to power it which is what I do so as to not take any power from the C64, I just plug it into the wall.. Something to think about..

I have used a Digicom 2 board plugged in the Cassette port for Amateur Radio packet long ago.
