Basically you are correct. The GIME chip was a custom chip made by tandy. They discontinued the part years ago so when it goes... Ebay "for parts" it should go!

So if I hear this conversation correctly, Gime chips are irreplaceable and if one goes on one of our beloved coco 3’s we essentially have a nice paper weight?Now I’m concerned I have an infamous “86” chip in one of mine. Oh the stress of a hobby in old electronics. --Coco mailing listCoco at maltedmedia.comhttp://five.pairlist.net/mailman/listinfo/coco
