For those of you who wanted more info on the Commodore 16 Mod presented
yesterday:
http://blog.tynemouthsoftware.co.uk/2019/02/commodore-16-64k-upgrades.html
I followed the permanent method but did not cut any traces on the board and I
made all connection from the top. He also sells a memory switcher to switch
between 16k and 64k.
And for the 8501 drop in replacement I bought this product:
https://www.sellmyretro.com/offer/details/mos--7501~~8501-cpu-replacement-for-c16~~116~~%2B4-30475
Comes out to approx.. $80 Canadian delivered
I also talked about the 6510 to 8501 conversion, this is a conversion kit that
can be bought:

or you can do your own adapter as described in the video here:

hope you all enjoyed the demo . I always enjoy showing projects I am working on
.
