This #Commodore #MaxMachine had a duff MOS6566 VIC-II chip.
The chip is incredibly rare, but with an adapter board from go4retro.com and a MOS6567 chip from @commodorelad I was able to repair it.
I love it when a plan comes together.🥳

We went to the Enter.ch computer and media museum in #Solothurn #Switzerland today.
They have a fairly large number of old computers on display, even two #MaxMachine are there.😍
There's also a virtual tour for those far from Switzerland:

The pcb and parts for the #commodore #MaxMachine VIC-II MOS6566 adapter have arrived.
I couldn't help but soldering it together even though I'm still missing the MOS6567.
I'm tempted to say something heroic like "not my finest work harhar", but who am I kidding, this is probably as good as I'll ever be (yes, not a pro🤷♂️).

The adapter boards for the #commodore #MaxMachine have arrived. These can be used to replace the holy grail rare 6566 VIC-II chips with standard 6567 ntsc chips.
I'm still missing all the parts, but we'll get there.

Newest additions to the collection are these 3 games.
#RoadRace, #MoleAttack and #Avenger for the #commodore #MaxMachine.
Avenger is actually a pretty good #SpaceInvaders clone.
These are early Max cartridges but they can also run on a #C64.

So I didn't buy the last #commodore #MaxMachine...because I bought the one before.🥳
It arrived yesterday and look at its beauty. I mean LOOK AT IT.😍
It was sold as non-working but I have high hopes since it needs a cartridge to boot up.

Newest addition to the collection are these games on cart for the #commodore #MaxMachine.
Quite chuffed about these.
Look at the amazing artwork.😍
I'm probably going to sell my Max Machine soon, which can only mean one thing.😉
