A community for those who love the Commodore 64, the best selling personal computer of all time. Fans of the original, collectors, modders, programmers, and clone builders are welcome. Did you just buy a cool old machine? Show us. Are you building something cool? Tell us about it. Do you need help with a program? Ask.
Vic20s, PETs, CBMs, and other Commodore machines are also welcome.
RULES:
All Lemmy.ca rules apply here.
Everyone (see rule 98) is welcome.
If you’ve seen a question 100 times answer it the 101st time or ignore it. Even better, write a complete, detailed answer and suggest that the mod(s) pin it to the community.
[Did you actually think there were 98 rules?]
If you present something as fact and are asked to provide proof or a source provide proof or a source. Proof must be from a reliable source. If you fail to provide proof or a source your post or comment may be removed.
Don’t be a dick. Yes, this is a catch-all rule.
The mod(s) have the final say.
The CIAs, 6510, and VIC are original. In this photo I have original BASIC, Kernel, and Character ROMs in stalled for testing but I normally use 25256 to 23xx adapters to use modern ROM chips with this motherboard. I bought the parts kit from Retro8BITshop and soldered it myself.
Beautiful! I've been meaning to try out the Armsid myself but haven't got around to it yet. Are you happy with yours?
Thank you. Yes, I'm happy with the ARMSID. I see that there are now modern replacements for all of the chips including the CIAs, 6510, and VIC II. I may replace some or all of my original MOS chips and put stereo on this board at some point.
