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 
.

Thanks Simon Z for the presentation and the reference websites - I'll probably be referencing them if I can find my C16!
