|  Re: TED chip wanted!
It is still possible to find some vendors who have various (not only Plus/4) ancient chips in stock.
I have recently acquired a non-working Plus/4 - suffering from the infamous "black screen of death" so I have been looking for some cheap source of the chips. So far I have found a few German sources, for example www.electronicpool.de. Also, when looking at www.usbid.com, I noticed that there were supposedly some good sources in Poland. Unfortunately I couldn't get any details without registering, which is useless for me anyway, since I am in no way going to buy over 500$ worth of TEDs or anything else.
If anyone has any idea where to buy them in Poland please don't keep it for yourself.
I have got this information from a German e-shop:
pcs. Type price/unit del.time
1 8501 R1 (MOS) Euro 5,65 stock
1 8360 Euro 35,00 stock
1 8360 R2 (251535-02) Euro 37,50 stock
1 318004-04 Euro 18,80 stock
1 318004-05 Euro 18,80 stock
1 318006-01 Euro 18,80 stock
1 251641-02 Euro 9,39 stock
1 6529 B (251640-03) Euro 8,40 stock
All prices are in Euro per unit
Handling charges 10,00 Euro plus bank charges and freight costs
All offers are subject to prior sales.
I must admit these prices seem rather unfortunate for me, although I'd buy the CPU if I knew it was the culprit. Well, I have found one Plus/4 owner near my location (they seem to be rare here in Czech Republic) so I hope I could test my chips in his machine.
Of course I would rather buy a whole spare machine but the auctions listing only bare machines don't look very trustworthy, that's for sure, and complete sets are rather expensive and not very useful when one already has the necessary peripherals.
On USBID they also list a 8501 CPU without any revision number manufactured in 1989. Sounds interesting to me (probably because I know nothing about Plus/4 yet  )
I'd also like ask you people if you are going to the Arok Party in Hungary and if it is really a general 8-bit event as the organizers claim. So far the visitor list contains Commodore people only and I, being rather a long-time Atari user, would probably feel like an alien there

That's a very interesting forum thread there... the guy claims to have original TED chip masks.Could that be true? Seems unreal, but who knows... those masks could be the ultimate "documentation" of the TED so it'd be great to have them even if they won't ever be produced.

Well, one idea would be to grab a working C16 or Plus/4 from eBay. It has a TED inside There's one which you can buy right now for USD 5, if you live in the US. Although that will probably be an NTSC TED.
