C116 video

Hello,

in case some readers here haven't seen the video with Bil Herd talking 
about the C116:

I also found a few pictures of a C116 prototype before the 6529, PLA and 
banking logic was added:

Only 10 chips on it... It also shows that the layout was completly 
redone for the production version. If you have a C116 board, take a look 
at the chip numbers. Everything with a number of U101 or above was (as I 
understand it) added later, the original design works without it.

And here's something people have done with the limited hardware (plus a 
SID card for the sound):

Sometimes a chip like the 6529 would come in handy since it's small, 
bidrectional and easy to use... To bad no one else makes one like it.
