I did the following: I have a C128DCR equipped with SCPU128, RL, and FD2000
(all bought used on Ebay and alike), and I wanted to have the internal 1571
be JD, too. Maybe one or two years ago when it was still possible to get
something from Maurice I ordered this chip, but I ran a "backup" in the drive
until I received the real chip after some months. I never bothered to burn a
"backup" or buy a chip for the C64 or C128 mode, though, since both the RL
and SCPU already have a copy, and usually at least one of them can be active
without breaking compatibility with a program or game I want to load.
