Re: New Vic 20 owner here.

I was thinking of getting the mega cart first and then getting an sd card reader later on. To tell you the truth, i don't know if it even works since my tvs don't have the old fashioned antenna screw connector. I bought a composite cable for it online, so i'm waiting on that. If it needs repair, I ...

Not really that clever and a bit transparent if everyone did this. I have bought some items untested and been pleasantly surprised. I am bidding for it, anyone want to join me and share the risk and the anticipation of being the first to play this in some years? Or shall I just put it in a picture ...

I thought I saw a short blurb that there was some kind of firmware trick that restricted it to Manosoft's device.

Still, if there is enough demand, someone else will make one - maybe even Jim Brain.

I like the external power source myself as I use the uIEC on my Plus/4 as well.

The pics were not very detailed and I offered him a sum for the whole lot; I didn't know they were anything other than the usual late-model VICs which is what I based my price on.

2 VICs and I want to be fair

I bought 2 VICs and accessories for 80 dollars plus actual shipping. I got some books, 2 datasettes, a Commodore joystick, a couple of cartridges.
