Closest thing to a video card for the Commodore 64. It gives a proper 80 column display with an 80 column chip. It will help get my C64 closer to my 128 :-p
Yup. I remember those. Fun piece of strange computer history.
Didn't NovaTerm do a fancy emulated 80 columns on a stock C64, though? Don't know why you'd want 80 columns except to call a BBS, anyhow.
If our 11-part series on the history of the Amiga and our (in-progress) seven-part series on the history of the Apollo program don't give it away, we happen to be unabashed fans of a certain computing platform and a certain space program around the Ars Orbital HQ. So this week, a small post at HotHardware inevitably caught our eye: an old NASA-used Amiga evidently ended up for sale on eBay.
