Commodore 128 64K VDC Video Memory Upgrade

We knew that there were tremendous advantages to the extra RAM. Like being able to scroll through video memory, of the potential for greatly enhanced colour resolution. And, since Commodore has seen fit to make it a standard feature on all the new 128D's, we knew it was only a matter of time before new software started taking advantage of the full 64K.

That time arrived. Programs like Maverick, FasTrac 128, BASIC 8, the BASIC 8 Toolkit, Spectrum 128 and News Maker have all been coded to take advantage of the full 64K of video RAM found on the 128D's. So if you've got a regular C-128 with only 16K of video RAM, you've got a big problem. And we've got the solution.

You could upgrade on your own - but if thoughts of splattered solder and heat-damaged motherboards bother you, relax. We've developed a module that plugs right in to your C-128 - and doesn't fill that empty ROM socket, either. Just open the 128, remove the RF shield and the lid that covers the metal box on the motherboard, and pull the socketed 8563 chip. Plug our board in its place and plug the 8563 into our board. Replace the covers and you're done. That's it. No soldering, no hassles. Now your machine can have the same 64K of video RAM as the newer 128D machines. And you'll be ready for whatever the future holds.
