@thankfulmachine I have been wanting to do something like this with a 6502. I actually started it but got really tired of cutting all the custom length wires lol

@markkrueg ARMSID is great, I have the ARM2SID in mine for stereo audio. Also check out the J-CIA if you haven’t!

Anyone good with CRTs? I modded my SSM-14n5u to add RGB and it has these weird lines in the upper left, and my on screen menu bounces around and is sometimes distorted when there is no video signal. When I do have a video signal everything is fine… #retrocomputing #retrogaming

Finally joined the Trinitron gang and absolutely loving it. Just need to RGB mod it now. #retrocomputing

Not much, but started playing with CC65, still trying to figure out where proDOS fits in all this.

@pulkomandy i used a website similar, haven’t heard of this one. There were some that looked a bit similar. This one looks to be the same, just a different layout

@F4JWJ i have a VGA card that works on the 8-bit system but it doesn’t have a bracket. Haven’t thought of a solution yet.

I would love to get a CGA or EGA card

@F4JWJ I think it’s some sort of Hercules clone card since it has the 64K of memory
