Turbo Chameleon 64 is an extremely user-friendly cartridge that can be used without opening the computer. It is just plugged to the expansion port of the C64.
The Turbo Chameleon 64 cartridge can also be operated as a stand-alone unit (since it’s basically an FPGA computer like the C-One or the Minimig in a C64 cartridge case), replacing the computer, the floppy drive and the heavy power supply.
When used as a stand-alone unit, a USB power adapter or active USB hub can be used as a power source.
Changelog:
- fixed REU, transfer length register is 1 after a transfer completes.
- fixed REU 512K wrap around.
- fixed cache controller preventing corruption when accessing 0x1FFFF0000 – 0x1FFFFFFFF
- faster SDRAM controller. More memory bandwidth for turbo.
- added slowdown modes to the Turbo settings. Offering CPU speeds of 25%, 50%, 75% and 100%.
- added native updater program (see manual) to update the fpga core without an usb connection.
- make menu item active when pressing a hotkey, so it is selected when going back to the respective menu.
- correctly mute/unmute second sid in menu freezer.
- clockport- and rr-net- items in options menu are correctly disabled if either is not available.
- if found, load and run update.prg from sd card (chameleon updater)
- if “boot from sd card” is enabled, load boot.prg from sd card (regular c64 boot program)
- improved navigation in one panel mode, cursor right enters subdir/image and cursor left goes one level up.
- improved quickfind, just type a filename quickly to jump to it.
- mount menu is skipped if there would only be one active item.
- when returning to the menu from the sid player by pressing left/menu button it will go directly to the filebrowser.
- added gfx viewer for various multi-color and hires formats.(see manual)
- added wav player (see manual)
- added filecopy (F5 in two panel mode, see manual)
- set $030c-$030e to 0 before starting prgs, increases compatibility with certain packers.
- .sid files which actually contain a basic program can now be run correctly.
- re-read destination panel after copying image.

VirtualC64 emulates a Commodore 64 personal computer on your Intel Macintosh OSx > 10.6.
I wrote the software with two major goals in mind. First, I wanted to create an emulator that can be used as a demonstrator program in a first year or second year course on computer engineering.
To achieve this goal, I have integrated various debugging capabilities that let you peek inside the CPU, RAM, ROM, or one of the custom chips. Second, I tried to make the emulator as user friendly as it can get.
In short: VirtualC64 tries to combine the ongoing fascination of the ancient Commodore computers with the great user experience of today’s Macs.
Bug fixes and enhancements:
- Lions native fullscreen mode now works as expected (no more ugly borders)
- Removed old fullscreen mode which frequently crashed on lion machines.

The Commodore Amiga 520 Video Adapter is a device that allows you to connect your Amiga 500 to a TV set or a composite video monitor.
It does this by converting the RGB video signal the Amiga produces for RGB monitors to a composite video signal that a TV or composite monitor can interpret.

from Wikipedia:
The Amiga 500 – also known as the A500 (or its code name ‘Rock Lobster’) – was the first “low-end” Commodore Amiga 16/32-bit multimedia home/personal computer. It was announced at the winter Consumer Electronics Show in January 1987 – at the same time as the high-end Amiga 2000 – and competed directly against the Atari 520ST. Before Amiga 500 was shipped, Commodore suggested that the list price of the Amiga 500 was 595.95 USD without a monitor. At delivery in 1987, Commodore announced that the Amiga 500 would carry a 699 USD list price.
The Amiga 500 represented a return to Commodore’s roots by being sold in the same mass retail outlets as the Commodore 64 – to which it was a spiritual successor – as opposed to the computer-store-only Amiga 1000.
The original Amiga 500 proved to be Commodore’s best-selling Amiga model, enjoying particular success in Europe. Although popular with hobbyists, arguably its most widespread use was as a gaming machine, where its advanced graphics and sound for the time were of significant benefit.
The Amiga 500 series was discontinued in mid-1992 replaced by the similarly specified and priced Amiga 600, although this new machine had originally been intended as a much cheaper budget model, which would have been the A300. In late 1992, Commodore released the “next-generation” Amiga 1200, a machine closer in concept to the original Amiga 500, but featuring significant technical improvements. Despite this, neither the A1200 nor the A600 replicated the commercial success of its predecessor as, by this time, the market was definitively shifting from the home computer platforms of the past to commodity Wintel PCs and the new “low-cost” Macintosh Classic, LC and IIsi models.

EasyCLI is a command shell for the Commodore 64 computer. EasyCLI is packaged as an EasyFlash cartridge. This gives EasyCLI the ability to boot the computer and bring the user straight to the shell without having to load and run a program from disk.
EasyCLI comes packaged with several built in commandlets, each of which is it’s own 8K program that is stored in the EasyFlash cartridge and loaded on demand.
Changelog:
- New command: ECHO – Outputs text following the command.
- New command: PAUSE – displays prompt and waits for user to input a key.
- New command: EXEC – Executes a script. Scripts are chains of commands that will be executed in a sequence. Scripts can be chained together by including another EXEC command at the end of the script. This is very useful because the longer a script is the longer it takes to execute the commands in the script since the script must be reloaded after each command, so chaining together small scripts is faster than one big script.
