Oh, what in the.... Knowing Sony and knowing nothing about this absolutely cursed use of Firewire I could only hazard to say at this point if you have multiple Sony applications to choose from that's all you are going to get. I'm assuming you saw the thread on the avsforum where it was...

Well I can vouch it's the real deal and it's VERY clean, so I second that if anyone is missing their keyboard here is one that works.

Another one?? I bought the exact same style keyboard form him a few weeks ago.

Unknown_k is right. I have a 64 for my own and then there's the basically new 64 in storage I can't get rid of, then there's even more loose machines and boards outside and then there's ANOTHER ONE in the arcade cabinet I made. The C64 was in the 2001 Guiness book of world records for more than...

For the whole MCS-48 family I've just resorted to the trusty old Willem and the $25 MCS-48 adapter.

Here's the logged information for the discharge and charge rate on the GRidCase 1520 Of note: -An unexpected discovery is the BCM produces the linear discharge that you would expect with the original Ni-Cd batteries than you would see with lithium where it has an immediate drop, a prolonged...

As of right now their website says that Batch 2 is in production with an availability date of September. Not sure if that's their own boards or the ones NewCommodore is shipping with their own markings.

The basic unit is $500cad..... I can buy MULTIPLE C64's for that. Hell, for $500 you can buy a full working system with C2N, joystick, 1702 and a Kung Fu Flash for $500. These are tacky shelf queens for idiots. Edited: It's a gideon Ultimate64 (Elite-II) in there. https://ultimate64.com/

I don't give a fsck and don't play that game. If I bid my max on something and someone wants to pay more, it's not me paying that kind of money but I'm certainly forcing someone else to pay a stupider sum. Plus when you see it appear somewhere else you can then mock the person for paying so...

That's a lot of money for M/PM :P.

After spending more time reading GRiD's manuals for the GRiDcase and the GRiDcase 1500 series I learned that five hours even for the original Ni-Cd chemistry was not enough. The average charge time for a battery according to GRiD using either the laptop or the GRiD 32115 External Battery Charger...

I'm splitting this off from the two or three other discussions into a new thread so that I can properly publish my progress and notes as I work on this and hopefully find some better input on my problems. So all of the original GRiD battery packs have long since failed. Some of them have leaked...

Still there on my end. 32 bids and $2700usd

So this is a minitel server running on VAX hardware? I don't think I've seen that before. In fact, I didn't think ANY of the old minitel servers still existed!
