Re: Stupid Intergers!
...Oh, wait. Is that last space used to determine if the number is positive or negative? Yup! Signed 16 bit integer range is -32768 to +32767. That's also why you get a negative number when you type the command ?FRE(0) on a commodore 64 you just turned on. Basic V2 only allows 16 bit to signify the...

ALL FIXED! That pencil eraser trick works WONDERS. I took the keyboard breadboard out of the system again and carefully polished each key with a nice soft pencil eraser then wiped them clean with a little more rubbing alcohol. I never used a VIC-20 new, but I have to imagine this is about as well a...

As I indicated in the past, the main thing I would have changed about the VIC is to have all communications registers located in BLK4, including the IO2 and IO3 ranges put into BLK5 and use BLK4 as another potential 8k expansion. In other words, everything that's in BLK4 put into BLK5 and BLK5's exp...

Re: Cartridge random revival request #4
For some reason I'd been putting this off for ages, but given recently I managed to exhaust all my possible avenues to get something out of it, I figured I'd throw a request here. As many of you know, I managed to dump my Key Quest cartridge recently for posterity and inclusion into the Megacart pr...

A few more original JiffyDOS chips on eBay
Hello people,

I thought that someone already did a complete VIC-20 in FPGA... Wouldn't this mean that someone has already reverse-engineered the VIC chip then? The answer to that, actually, would be yes. Someone did in fact reverse engineer the VIC chip. And I did contact the guy who created the FPGA VIC-20 conc...
