Do I actually need a new laptop if I could for the money a new toy?

I could also attempt to repair my two but I'm a) to stupid and b) I use their status as an excuse to look into a

@Ozmopolitan If you would like them repaired I am happy to take a look at them

@kelpana Wow! That would be amazing. I reckon I fried the RAM chips as both haven't shown the correct number and one of them was tested before I got it (actually bought it as replacement)

But sure, if you want to have a look I would be very grateful!

@Ozmopolitan sure. I only really do repairs for "friends", but I am happy to take a look at both C64s. Are they C64C or C64G? Could be as simple as a multiplexer being broken. If they boot but show wrong RAM it's likely a fault with RAM.

@kelpana Both are C64C. I'm happy to take every help I can get. You're amazing, thank you

@Ozmopolitan I believe we a located closely enough to arrange this. Just not sure how to DM on Masto!
