 MMC and SD-card interface for the C64 18:06
Developer Oliver Achten has finished his first product that will be produced by individual Computers: MMC64 is an MMC- and SD-card interface for the C64 computer. It uses the multimedia and Secure Digital flash cards that are known from the PDA world. That means that after you power up the computer, you can access any MMC or SD card that’s FAT16-formatted - up to the size of 4GB! The built-in and flashable BIOS with integrated file browser allows the user to load games and other programs, play SID-files with the built-in player, or write D64 images to a floppy drive.

MMC64 has a clockport for expansions like RR-Net, and a pass-through for other expansion cards. This pass-through is 100% compatible with the Retro Replay - both expansions can be used in their full functionality at the same time. MMC64 will be available for 49,- EUR starting february 2005, and will be demonstrated for the first time at the TUM party in Hemsbach, Germany (december 27th to 29th, 2004).

What is better too spend some time with all those Commodore fans together? Come and take a look at our show, we promise you, it will be great! Look for the latest information at: commodore-gg.hobby.nl
 the Ultimate Special Features 2oo4! 11:41
Come to the Ultimate Meeting 2004! Once again, we?re here to redefine what a "Demo-Party" can be. With plenty of space, immersive competitions with massive prizes, and a second stage powered by a spectacular audio system for our Dj friends, you won?t want to miss this.

chill-in and chill-out
You?re arriving early or your plane leaves late? This is your chance to see the organizers sweat, run and curse as we try to get everything done in time. But that doesn?t have to bother you, because you?ll be listening to cool dj-music and watching demos at the second stage. The same goes for the time after the prizegiving ceremony. Parties don?t have to end at noon, you?ll see :)

internet access
This year, the Ultimate Meeting features internet access for all visitors. Wanna check some mails, need a file for your entry or chat with your girl at home? No problem there.

direct availability of releases
As a nice sideeffect, we will make all releases directly available on our website, as soon as the competition is over. So those who can?t attend this year don?t have to wait until after the party. But that?s not all: you can also vote for all releases over the internet! Those votes will be used as a comparison to the normal voting at the partyplace.

webcam
We?ll also have an user-controllable webcam at the partyplace, so you can take a close look on what you?re missing. Wanna see FZools nosehair or D.Fox? bald head? Zoom right in :)

audio- and video steaming
Since everybody loved the streams of the music-competitions last year, this time we?ll be streaming them over the internet, too. For the people at the partyplace, we?ll stream videos of all the other competitions as well. Sounds cool, eh? :)

second stage
Since some parties feature a second stage - this year we will as well. Constant action in form of fun-competitions (we have a LOT of those), liveacts and dj-music is awaiting you.

party network
As usual, we?ll have a cool party-intranet. You can upload and edit your entries, preview your entry-beamslide, order tasty food, send messages to other sceners, vote and of course download all the releases from there. No need to get up to do stuff anymore :)

upload and voting terminal
For those without computer, we?ll have a upload and voting terminal ready. There you can - well - you?ll figure it out :)

cool prizes
Unlike other parties, the Ultimate Meeting features some very innovative and cool prizes. Be surprised :)
