The circuit board of the silver label C64 contains quite a few gold and ceramic parts.  That golden 6581 SID chip alone is incredibly desirable to many collectors.

I’m told many Commodore 64′s from this era were not so much refurbished as replaced due to their technical flaws.  Many were simply outright destroyed to remove the defective early design revisions from circulation.  This is the C64 that Commodore didn’t want you to see.

Commodore MAXmachine

The Commodore MAX, released in 1982, was a Japan-exclusive home computer and a predecessor to the Commodore 64. Designed by Yashi Terakura, it started as a video game console before gaining programming capabilities.

Sharing hardware with the C64, it featured a 6510 processor, 6851 SID sound chip, and VIC-II graphics but had a membrane keyboard and just 2K of RAM. BASIC wasn’t built-in, requiring a cartridge for programming. It lacked serial ports, disk drive support, and an AV socket, relying on NTSC-J RF output.

Designed for cartridge-based software, only 32 MAX cartridges were made, though they were compatible with the C64. Initially planned for global release as a budget alternative to the C64, it was discontinued after only a few months.

Someone once donated a box of IC's weighing 1.5 kilogram! Finally time to sort it out. So far I have 3x6510, 1x6502, 2xZ80, 1x68000, 1xCIA, a bunch of TRS-80 ROMs and unknown ROMs, a mountain of RAM and a heap of logic gates. Far from finished as you can see... #Retro #RetroComputing #6510 #6502 #68000 #Commodore #Commodore64 #C64 #Motorola #Tandy #z80 https://www.instagram.com/p/CWWduCUAQA7/?utm_medium=tumblr
