A fellow worker has a VIC-20 with a bad 6560 IC. It works when sprayed with freon but not otherwise. It is out of warranty. It seems the going price on this chip from an "authorized repairman" is $42.00 !!!!! We were told that Commodore owns Mostek and there is no other replacement for the 6560.

+ Try calling AB Computers is Colmar, PA for a good price on Commodore chips. $42 is probably the full gentile price. Jeff Porter (inuxd!porter) AT&T Consumer Products Indianapolis
