 Re: SID-card 3rd batch

OK guys!

Now I am proud owner of a SID card + 6581 SID chip
It will be tested, hopefully OK grin (I have an 1571+Plussy, but cannot find in my old collection any stuff that has SID support, argghh! So I am looking adter an SD2IEC to test the card...)

But: it is true, that what the sticker states: be aware of ESD. electrostatic shock may kill the SID chip.
SID6581 produced with the first MOS tachnology, so it is more prone to IC death.
The card has no housing, and seeing the price of plastic cartridge housing no wonder. But the SID card looks BIG, loong.
But I have an idea: Are you aware of any cartridge had this size? I may buy one ony ebay, and sacrifie it's inner content to protect the SID ard. I bought a PageFox cartride, but it seems still too small, despite a lot of good things inside happy (and certainly I will not destroy that gem! happy )
