Available on eBay (http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=250116445648) is a disassembler (c)1984 starting at $99.
What gives? Is this thing especially rare? There's plenty newer disassemblers some of them free. Well, I guess this one might have some C64 equates, but still...
Looks like Worldlam ended it early with Buy It Now for $124.95...

Were there other symbolic disassemblers for the C64? I recall ads for one that advertised being able to create listings compatible with several different assemblers, but have no idea if it was the same as this.
When referring to others, I meant general 6502 and family dissassemblers you can run on Windows or Linux. This is the first I've seen for the 64 so I guess if a 64 is all you got then you might spend $125. I bet its a blast bidding on auctions with a 64 :/
Also this just popped up on eBay (http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=250116900033) -- a symbolic debugger starting at $125 or Buy It Now for $150. So for an extra $25 you can not only look, but you can interact :P
Looks like Schnedler put together some interesting tools, though seems to me they would have been more useful in cartridge form. And since I can't find them archived online anywhere, I imagine they'll disappear back into obscurity after making this brief appearance. That's too bad, unless they were crap.
Looks like Worldlam picked up the debugger, too. Man, he must have a lot of space to keep the stuff he buys. He should put together a video tour of his collection and stick it on one of the video sites... it would be interesting to see all that hardware and software together in one(?) place.
By the way, debugging reminds me... am I right in thinking there's some way to have the 128's reset switch break into the machine language monitor rather than resetting the machine? Or is my memory completely messed up on that one? Maybe I'm thinking of my old Mac IIci, where you could drop into the debugger.
Yep, just hold down STOP when you press reset and you're in the monitor.
I never bought a freezer/ml/fastload cartridge cause the C128 already had all those features built-in. Well the freeze was a kind of manual, via Bank1 GO64 then reset like we're talking about, but pretty good for no extra cost!
Ah ha! Thanks for filling in that blank in my memory. The 128 definitely has some awesome features for development.
