5 Monitors on a Commodore 128!

My poor old C128 is a mess at the moment. The keyboard is starting to fail again on it, the MT RAM are dying and the SID is dying. It has always been a problem child this computer.
It's currently at a friend's place as originally I was having issues with serial devices (floppy drives, drive emulators) which was due to an Amiga CIA being installed in it. Putting in a CIA from another C128 has got it to the point it will read disks now. So now I need to source one of those chips as well.

Seriously, #C128 enthusiasts are #MadLads...

But yeah, #RGB to #monochrome works and early #Projectors used 3 seperated R/G/B optical paths before #DLP with it's spinning wheel was introduced.

- That same tech was used for #Anaglyph #3D, so one could do #3D video with a #VGA system!

5 Monitors on a Commodore 128!

My major project for this week is trying to get #FujiNet firmware v1.6.1 released. Seems like there's always another bug that needs to be squashed. Probably because FujiNet is available on so many systems and I'm still in the process of cleaning up all the copy&paste coding and creating proper base classes for everything.
