In his mail from 17 April '87 Richard C. Secrist asked about replacement of
the video processor in the Commodore 64 to make the CP/M cartridge work.
Yes, I did "win".
But: I tried the cartridge with several 64's and some older types work, some
newer also. There's no logic in it! I myself had the oldest of all the ones
I tried but it didn't work!
I received the other VIC-chip from a friend who had a broken 64 and didn't
mind swapping. Here in Holland there are also several shops where you can buy
the chip. So stop looking for oldies and try a brand new one!
