d64 floppy0 1541 Drive Music HOT

Written by Christopher C. Capon. Officially this program is called the Sing Song Serenade for the c64 and 1541 / 2031. Anyway, its a really cool program that makes your floppy drive play music by what I assume is vibrating the heads. If you've never tried it on a real 1541 you have to do it at least once.

zip3 CBM 1541 Drive Diagnostic v2.0

Commodore 1541 Drive Diagnostic Disk v2.0 - Thanks Bruce Thomas for sending over this disk of drive testing utilities by Commodore that has some unique programs that aren't on the usual test/demo disk that comes with the 1541 floppy drive.  In fact, there are a few test programs that aren't even for the 1541 drive, but instead for testing the C64.

zip4 Commodore 64 Program Pack

One of our visitors, JC over at Basic Bites was kind enough to share a rare disk image of the "Commodore 64 Program Pack" that came with the 1541 floppy drive back in 1983.  This was a short lived addition to 1541 floppy drives, so we are very glad to be able to share this with everyone as a piece of history that is not commonly known about.

If you'd like to learn more about this rare floppy, check our JC's video over on YouTube.
