Hi,
Where can I get Commodore ringtones for my Virgin Mobile phone? I am
interested in a ringtone that captures the sound of a Commodore PET
when it is first turned on. Any help is greatly appreciated!

Thanks!

Hi Mark,

Most Ringtones are MP3 files, so that said, it would be fairly easy to
record your own on a PC. (if you own a PET )

I don't have a PET, but many here do, maybe they can record it for
you.... if they have a mic ( also a lot of web cams have a mic built
into them) by just setting it next to PET.

Windoze "sound recorder" saves files as a WAV on most machine's, but
there are TONS of freeware conversion programs to convert the WAV to
an MP3.

Although Im not a Verison user, but it probably uses MP3's (possibly
a midi >MID< file ) but the conversion is again easy. How you
actually can download it to your phone maybe the biggest stumbling
block.

If I had a Pet, I'd do the deed for you, but that was one C= machine,
I never owned.

Rick

P.S. You also might want to use some of the HUGE selection of "ready
to go" midi files at the link below (instead).... there is some
really good sheet there, and converting some of these classic soundz
to MP3 is a breeze <wink>

the VICE emulator does a good PET 40xx/80xx jingle, without having to
have an actual PET to record it from.
