THE STORY

Turbo8bit is a tribute to the Commodore 64—the best-selling home computer of all time. This website is dedicated to exploring, understanding, and celebrating this remarkable machine that shaped a generation of programmers and gamers.

Here you'll find interactive explorations of the C64's hardware, from the legendary SID sound chip to the VIC-II graphics processor. Write BASIC and 6502 assembly that runs in a real emulator, watch the chips talk over the system bus, and explore the memory map.

This page is still a work in progress and experimental. Slowly getting there. Report bugs here.

THE AUTHOR

This site was created by me, Zac Walker. I have worked in technology for three decades, and the Commodore 64 is where it all started. Like many children of the 1980s, the C64 was my first computer — a gateway to programming, games, and a lifelong love of technology.
