Re: CSG 4510 and 4567 and Dmagic reverse engineering

I would bet that the engineers working on some of these IC's
(specially the VIC ic out of the C65) kept their documents & notes, If
you were the engineer that had worked on the design of the VIC III, I
bet you would hold onto your notes and documents after the project was
scraped.  Seriously, I imagine that designing that chip at
MOS/Commodore would have been allot of personal investment, when the
project go scraped there is a chance Bill Gardei chucked all his
docs/notes into a folder to hold onto. BTW, I wouldn't REALLY bet on
that.

I have had a look through the C64 manual a while back, from memory, I
don't think the VIC III was ever completed to the spec in the C65
manual???  I think that the VIC III was meant to convert RGB to PAL,
but I think the PAL output is missing on C65's ???  Anyway, not sure,
I have never seen a C65, just photos :(

BTW, does anyone know specifically what type of plastic was used in
the manufacturing of the cases fror Commodore computers such as the
C64 / C64C & C65???
