Commodore 64 Screensaver for Windows

SUMMARY: Nostalgia buffs - display the Commodore 64 startup screen as your Windows screensaver.

For those Windows users who have nostalgia over their Commodore 64 computer (I know some of you are out there!), Kephyr Labs has created a Commodore 64 Startup Screensaver. It emulates the original Commodore 64 statup screen (with 38911 Basic Bytes free), right down to the dark blue background, light blue border, and blinking cursor. And, at a small download size of only 670k, it is just a little over 10 times the size of RAM on the original machine!

This screensaver works for Windows 95 and up.
