Those VIC-20s belonged to co-workers, who saw the mod in a magazine and
asked me to do it for them. I've never owned a Commie computer myself. ;-)
My first computer was an IMSAI 8080.

Incidentally. I recently bought a Nokia N800 and increased the SD RAM
from 128 MB to 4 G. It was a lot easier doing that, than that 3K
upgrade on the VIC. ;-)
