Many thanks, altho the cost is a little steep.. Ill search around to see if the gerbers and code for it are in the public domain -

aha - nice one, cheers! -
I have an 800XLF and a 65XE and they both need a replacement Freddie chip. Number: C061922 or C061991 Does anyone know a good place to order them from in the UK / EU? cheers 😁

try to keep the key level as you lift - i.e. un-tilted there is a bit of resistance (so they dont just fall off) but youll get the hang of it after 20 or 30 😁

if you decide to make your own, make sure you have a magnifier!

do you think costs were listed so high in order to reduce tax? i suppose the revenue authorities wouldve been clueless to challenge it.. RAM price was a massive factor, hence so many micro manufacturers offered a lower RAM version of their main computers - to cater for smaller budgets. Also why later revisions got more RAM (altho this is more apparent in the 16-bit age)

i think i read somewhere that Jobs' said in an interview he should be hired because he has a friend that can program and design hardware..! (i.e. Wozniak) an interesting rationale
-
if you want one, you have to get a PCB company to make the board for you, then solder in the components see here: https://github.com/kenames99/1090 JLCPCB will knock one up for just over 15 quid plus postage
-
indeed - lets face it, the 1090 is hardly a low profile device..!
-
is there any more info available on the Corina cart? gerbers, BOM etc.
-
is it mono because it is in hires or because its ported from the apple version?
