While on vacation in Florida over Spring Break, I visited a store that
looked like a Commodore museum. They had LOTS of hardware and software for the
original PET, VIC, C64, and C128 to sell.  I saw many packets of the public 
domain software that Commodore packaged.

The address of this store is:

	COMPUTER SPECIALTIES, INC.
	P.O. Box 1718 
	7705 Technology Drive
	Melbourne, FL 32904
	800-341-4368 (Florida)
	800-523-8275 (National)

This was an impressive looking store.  You would never know they had
old Commodore stuff inside.  Its a modern looking store with big
showrooms selling IBM stuff, AMIGA stuff, and Computer Supplies.

For $1 I bought Issue #1 of COMPUTE! in mint condition .  I already had it,
but I'm going to send it to a friend.(Are you reading this Betty?)

Good luck!
