Denial

I just dont understand why its so difficult get composite out of European model The TMS-9918/19 video chip used in the TI-99, Colecovision... later on also MSX (9928/29, 38/39 upgraded versions) natively outputs a signal almost like modern component video, but possibly not identical. <snip> I belie...

Thanks, I had actually been thinking about the uIEC, but then cheaped out and thought I'd try to make use of all the Commodore floppy drives I already had around. You might have me talked into going that route again. As I understand it, it supports partitions larger than a 1541 disk image, so it'd b...

Thanks. Because I have the good fortune of having a messy "mailbox" I thought someone might get a kick out of the following (from 3/3/98): "Hi there. Glad you liked the page, and I "sold you" on the Vic20. That gave me a smile; no one else has specifically commented on that ...

Great, the schematic looks to tell me everything I need to know to build the board. Would you sell EPROMs for $20? Never hurts to have an extra

i just had a vision for a VIC mod! A top loading cart slot ... The label would have to face forward. Your wish is my command! http://www.postimage.org/Pq1UuWTS.jpg :wink: What are those brown colored function keys origionally from? I have a Vic with a bad keyboard, I'be been keeping my eyes open fo...

Hmm, good question. I guess I see two uses for such a thing. One is something similar to an EPROM programmer, where I could load a .hex or .bin file from disk, write to EEPROM, verify, and then use that chip on another platform, project, whatever. The other, is just a programmable cartridge, where I...

I'm looking for some advice on getting some .prg files off the internet onto a real Vic-20. I've never transfered files to a Commodore before and am not sure exactly what would be easiest. I'm not really interested in cassette transfers unless disk won't work for some reason. My Vic is not physicall...

The Behr Bonz cart is now officially sold out. There may be another batch in the future if there is enough demand. Just wondering, as there doesn't look to be another batch in the works, would you be willing to sell the just the chips needed for me to make a Behr Bonz cart using a protoboard? Is it...

I'd be interested in one if it came with some a software package and was useful without too much hacking

Wow, I actually own every one of these machine (well, not an Atari 400, but a newer model). I started collecting well after they were all gone from the market so I don't know as much about the pricing, but do know a little about the hardware. I'm sure I'll forget something, hopefully this whill shed...

I'm new here and wanted to say hi. When the retro-computing but bit me in the mid 90s, Ward Shrake got me started collecting Vic-20 hardware and carts. Being more of a hardware nut than a gamer, my interests quickly expanded to other systems, but I never lost interest in the Vic. I recently ended up...
