I just read a facebook post by Trevor Storey that cartridges are hard to find now? Isn't that just a very simple pcb with some components and a chip?�
Anybody in the know what this is about? Trevor didn't seem to have any details.

PCB Way went on holiday for June 22nd, delaying their delivery for two whole days. That must be why.

No, he meant to say that besides floppies now cartridges are hard to come by? I find that hard to believe. PCBWay is literally giving them away for free.

Must be! I asked a friend of mine who designs hardware regularly if he'd ever paid for anything at PCBWay. He said he hadn't. They're giving the stuff away.

And that when Zzap and others announced that the cartridge was the future of C64 gaming...
