Ok, I know I'll probably get one thrown at me for asking this, but...

I don't suppose anyone here has a broken "Breadbin" C64 that they want to part with? It's ok if it does happen to work, but that's the least important bit. Main thing is that it's the old breadbin version (not the C64c or the Aldi C64G Version with white keys) and that the case in in good, unmodded condition. Would also be handy if it's not on the other side of the world to save on postage.

... waiting for the "weren't they all broken" reply to arrive....

Sorry, I only collect good quality computers.

nah, hope you'll find one...what is it for ?

Re-use the casing ?
Having a collector SID ?
Both ?

I did a serious hardware mod to the PCB for someone, but they wanted to do the case mod themselves. After it went very wrong, they asked me to fix it, but the case is beyond repair / looks like he cut it with a knife and fork. Now I need to source a new case for it.

I've got a Kotkasten here...
Will do a few tests with it (Never powered it up, got a PSU a few days ago)
When done, we can trade

Ok, my C64 doesnt match...
So, who has a Breadbin for Bryce?

Soooo many wrongs here.

A c64.
Someone trying to mod it.
Someone trying to revive it.

Tsk.

Don't waste your precious time with trash my friend, it's not worth. Just pour some gas over it and analyze how long it needs to burn until it stops working

Na, I already have Burning Rubber for my CPC

And besides, I like almost all retro computers, not just the CPC.

Burnin Rubber looks quite different - on c64.

At school all that c64 folks talked bad about my CPC, that was enough for a whole life. It's hard to forgive them.
