Re: Compute!'s Pixelator program

I completely missed this :oops:. Thank you for pointing it out, and thanks to the owner R.M. Smedley. It's a real gold mine, and last update is very recent (Aug 20th).

How do I ship microchips?

Ok, so I just sold 2 chips from my commodore 128...but I'm not sure of the best way to ship them? Any tips? Should I just wrap them in something and then put them in a box? I dunno.
