More VIC 20 consoles. It feels like the market is starting to dry up. I would also like a sturdy case for my uIEC. I've been trying to make one with little success. And, of course, as stated above: more time for the hobby!

Totally agree, esp the case. Was at home Depot tonight looking for something to use and came up empty. :(

That's seriously cool. Any chance we could get the save game feature added to it and get it released? I for one would definitely use it.
It depends only on TNT. Hope he's still reading us. Adventures without the save game option may be frustrating, but you can always keep the VIC on for a whole day while trying to solve and mapping Zork... I play those adventures and they're so advanced compared to the average text game, that it doesn't even seem a VIC-20 experience. I never ever imagined we could play Infocom on this micro.
