[QUOTE="Vipersan, post: 1026724, member: 325666"] [ATTACH=full]110256[/ATTACH] ..and my descent into 8 bit madness continues .. I have not been well recently ... ..an MS relapse I suspect ..and improvement is slow. ..the sh!tty weather isn't helping ..rain EVERY day .. I guess I shouldn't complain the US and Caribbean are having it much much worse. So ..I've now restored 4 x Commodore 64 3 x VIC 20 I have 2 working PLUS 4s ..though these are both waiting now for keyboard ribbon mods ..so can't call them 'working' as yet. and a C16 which is as yet incomplete chipset wise ..and missing it's RF moulator .. Maybe this will never live again ..time will tell. I also found time to dig an old APPLE II out of the loft .. repaired the main board ..and psu ...and is now working ..but sadly no floppy drives yet.. I think the controller card is fubarred ... If anyone has unwanted cards for this circa 1980 machine ..I'll find them a home. lol rgds VS ...maybe I'll get to my 2 sinclair spectrums ..eventually... ;) [/QUOTE]
