maybe he won the lotto and is getting revenge on everyone he lost out to before. Personally I would be on a beach somewhere sipping on a soda and play with my Vic. I mean, with an inverter. :D

what do you guys think about selling raffle tickets on ebay. My friend and I were discussing its legality. I say I could put up a brand new Vic-20 and have buyers pay $5.00 for a ticket number.

If you have a schematic simply run jumper wires from the solder point on the pins of 4066 to there connection points on corresponding chips. If you mess with trying to repair the trace you will probably damage more of it. With patience Most anything on commodore and amigas can be repaired.
