Commodore 128 Motherload Unboxing and Testing - ChickenHead Chronicles

This week on "Chickenhead Chronicles" I am unboxing the awesome Commodore 128 goodies I picked up at EE Surplus a few weeks back. I got ahold of a really nice C128, a pair of lovely 1571 drives, a Teknika monitor with RGBI and Chroma/Luma/Composite and a nice 9 pin Star Micronics printers along with a huge box full of software! Today we will be exploring and troubleshooting the hardware and discovering a problem or two along the way and you get to hear me singing the theme to Ghostbusters! Thanks to Richard Black for reminding me, I forgot to link to the World of Commodore meeting next week! Check it out. The schedule should be out soon. https://www.tpug.ca/world-of-commodore/world-of-commodore-2020/ Download some cool C128 specific software here. http://www.zimmers.net/anonftp/pub/cbm/c128/index.html Order some cool C128 display cables here: https://coolnovelties.co.uk/coolnovelties/78-c16-c64-c128-vic-20-video-cables Check out covers for your 8 and 16 bit Commodores here: www.retroready.one Looking for the really cool 40/80 column SCART adapter?
