Sorry, this entry is only available in Italian.
This is a small adapter which replaces the unobtanable 6540 ROM chips used in the Commodore PET 2001-8 computers with a standard 2716 EPROM.
They will work as a drop in replacement for any ROM chip in a PET 2001-8.

The PCB house shipped the first two ROM-el boards for inspection and testing.
Once they are assembled and testing, I will release the design to production. As one can see, the PCB is a merged set of 4 designs. The tabs between the designs are designed to be broken, separating the individual units after assembly.

This Multiple Classic Computer Platform lets dreams come true.
The Classic Computer and Classic Arcade fans are just waiting for a device which allows them to go back to the good and easy operation and gaming experience from the past.
Many people still have unique software and programs which are still unbeatable when it comes to user friendliness. The reconfigurable and generic design will allow an easy switch between multiple different realizations and representations of classic computers.
When we look to the 80ies and 90ies, names like Atari ST, Sinclair’s ZX-Spectrum, Commodores VC20, VC-64 and the whole Amiga Series 500, 1000, 2000 come to mind.
main Features:
- Old Joystick interfaces allow the usage of classic input devices.
- A stereo/audio output allows the connection to each TV set, amplifier or computer monitor to explore enhanced sound.
- Different versions for PAL and NTSC regions allow seamless usage and compatibility.
- All this paired with the newest available hardware and new interface, like SD-Card, S-Video and RGB Output, improve the picture quality and the openness of the systems.
- An internal memory enables the permanent storage of favorite games and applications, the menu overlay allows for easy selection of the application or game and the desired Classic Computer.

from 1541 Ultimate homepage:
Some of you might have noticed that the order form has been temporarily closed, and many questions and rumours have been going around about the future of the 1541 Ultimate. The reason behind all this, is that behind the screens I have been working on a successor of the “1541 Ultimate”. How this unit will be called has not yet been determined, but it could be something as simple as “1541 Ultimate II” or “Ultimate Cartridge”.
What is it, and why was it designed? Basically, it is a scaled down version of the 1541U. It will provide similar functionality, although some things have been changed. It will no longer support full-size SD-cards, but only MircoSD, or “Transflash”. Also, Ethernet will not be supported until further notice. It will support tape emulation out of the box (without the need for special FPGA images) and it will provide a real-time clock function with battery back up. Audio output has been significantly improved, which might seem useless for just the drive sounds, but this enables the creation of FPGA images that provide additional sound channels of useful quality. The power consumption has been reduced as well. There is one extra cool feature that will not yet be disclosed ;-)
And last but not least… This unit will come with a case! At least, that is the plan; there are some negociations going on with manufacturers for plastic insertion moulding. It seems feasible to have this done, although it’s pricy for low quantities. A prototype is 3D-printed this week; the prototype board is already there and functional.
