This is what I've heard too, so I'll stay clear of the one that comes with it and wait for a new one that is much better built. RM> Having a 1541 Ultimate is definitely a good idea! That's what I thought. It's a great piece of kit. RM> But it might be even better to go the UItimate 64 route. I thought about that, but 1) desoldering all those chips is going to be a paaaaaain (I'm already at my skill limit with the caps), and 2) I wanted to try and keep it as stock as possible. I'm sure you can relate :) RM> I assembled an EasyFlash cart once: RM> https://menedetter.net/ez-ricsi.crt Oh dope! Didn't know you could do this. I definitely want to try and keep it as stock as possible but once I get "bored" I might try this out. Of course, another $80 I shouldn't be spending ;-) Thanks for the advice and insight. - Andre --- Mystic BBS v1.12 A47 2021/01/26 (Raspberry Pi/32) * Origin: 2o fOr beeRS bbS>>20ForBeers.com:1337 (1:105/420) SEEN-BY: 1/123 18/200 90/1 105/5 7 10 11 81 82 105 420 500 120/340 SEEN-BY: 123/131 129/305 154/10 226/30 227/114 702 229/101 424 426 SEEN-BY: 229/452 664 981 1016 1017 240/5832 249/1 206 317 400 292/854 SEEN-BY: 317/3 322/757 342/200 633/280 PATH: 105/420 81 229/426 |
