I work around the corner from it,
And I went looking for c64 stuff,
The only thing I ever found was a 7pin din male
To make a cable... :)  I was hoping for a female to make
My own xe cable thingy (c64 drive to pc to create disks from images...)

:) not much there...

I don't get downtown that much these days. I used to work at Ryerson University 
and got to Active surplus occasionally, but these days I'm stuck in Markham ;-) 
 Anyone have any luck finding Commodore stuff at Active?

Steve

C64 motherboards should be all over the place (dead or alive) at surplus places.
Have you tried Active surplus on Queen/spadina?

A long shot, but does anyone have any spare PLA chips? They don't seem to show 
up on eBay very often these days...

I know I can get work-alike replacements for about $10 each but I'd like to try 
to find real chips first if possible.
