RE: Commodore VIC-20 Computer

Jim, 

Good point, I've kept a C64C just for this reason. Maybe I'll get lucky. 

Thanks

I believe the CR has the rainbow logo and the DIN PSU plug.

My vote would be to buy more than 1 as cheaply as possible.  I think the 
CR units are the best ones (DIN plug, smaller board, no PSU on board), 
but having two or more of them makes it so much easier to diagnose 
issues or just be able to continue operating if one fails.

If I had the choice of buying 1 known "better" VIC and 2 of lesser 
preference, I'd go for the two units.  VICs were pretty hardy machines, 
in my opinion.

Jim
