C64 chips and dip

Three new oneROM's

And a screensaver. Shiny.

Very few C64 chips it looks like.

Currently only the CPU, RAM, and glue logic are originals. Even the keys and case are new parts.

Was gonna say they look mostly like recreations.

It gets harder and harder every day finding original hardware. MOS was Commodore's and a lot of MOS died with 'em.

I am a 128 guy and chips for that are even harder to locate.

And this c64 was built specifically to harness as many community created parts as possible without going with a turbo chameleon or ultimate II+.

For sure. I've got several 128's. Wonder if Commodore (reborn) will do a 128 next?

I would love to see it but the 128 is such a complex and unorthodox beast. It will be a challenge. I would be happy to see replacement shells and a mechanical keyboard swap.

I really really really want a C128DCR mechanical keyboard replacement.
