Sold outChecked Jul 24, 2026fleXrom2Kby JD Micro

Preprogrammed selectable replacement for several 2 KB system and character ROMs used in early Apple II computers.

The MacEffects page said Sold out on 2026-07-24. Match the module's 9316 or 2716 mode to the socket. It does not replace the 2513 character ROM on pre-Revision-7 motherboards.

AvailableChecked Jul 24, 2026MegaFlash for Apple IIc and IIc Plusby Elmars Ositis and Thomas Fok

Adds flash-backed ProDOS volumes, a RAM disk, recovery ROM, clock, network transfer, and Applesoft enhancements inside an Apple IIc or IIc Plus.

JCM showed assembled 128 MB Apple IIc units in stock on 2026-07-24, while human review found the separate assembled IIc Plus package out of stock. The family remains available through the IIc version. A system-ROM replacement is required. Early ROM 255 IIc boards may need W1 and W2 modification, and early spring-clip keyboards may need the low-profile stiffener for clearance.

Build itChecked Jul 24, 2026OneROM Fireby Piers Finlayson

Replaces many 24-, 28-, 32-, and 40-pin EPROMs and mask ROMs with a configurable RP2350 board programmed over USB.

OneROM boards do not include ROM contents. Supply legally obtained images, choose the correct 24-, 28-, 32-, or 40-pin hardware, configure the exact ROM type and chip-select behavior, and confirm socket clearance and orientation. The open project provides a fabrication path. On 2026-07-24 JCM listed Fire 24, Fire 28, Fire 32, and Fire 40 as kit or assembled options, but its extracted page still called the 32- and 40-pin versions coming soon and did not establish which options could actually be ordered.

AvailableChecked Jul 24, 2026Open2327 ROM Adapter Familyby SukkoPera / The Brewing Academy

Replaces a 24-pin 2364 ROM with a programmable 27xxx-family EPROM or EEPROM and optionally switches among several ROM images.

The Atari-specific Brewing Academy page exposed an Add to Cart path on 2026-07-24, and the open design includes fabrication files. The assembled adapter is configured for a 2764; other capacities need the documented resistor configuration and optional switches. The open project says only the W27C512 configuration was thoroughly tested. Supply legally obtained, exactly sized ROM images and verify socket orientation.

Build itChecked Jul 29, 2026ROMulan PET RAMulatorby Gavin Andrews

Open PET repair board replacing 32 KB of system RAM and selectable ROMs while adding built-in diagnostics.

The assembled Tindie board has been out of stock since 2025-08-04, but GPL-2.0 design files remain public. The maker pages repeatedly label the $0000-$7FFF replacement as 32MB; that address range is 32 KB, and independent technical coverage also identifies 32 KB, so this catalog records the functional capacity rather than the apparent unit typo.

Find usedChecked Jul 27, 2026SuperKernal 36-in-1by SuperKernal project

Replaces a C64 or SX-64 KERNAL ROM with 36 selectable ROM or program slots, file browsing, firmware updates, and optional WLAN and FTP access.

No current official retailer or reproducible fabrication package was verified. A July 2026 hobby report says units had reappeared on Kleinanzeigen, so treat SuperKernal as used-market hardware and verify that the module, WLAN board, headers, firmware, and documentation are included. Supply only ROM images you are licensed to use.

AvailableChecked Jul 29, 2026Tynemouth PET ROM/RAM Boardby Tynemouth Software

Replaces or diagnoses PET system ROM and RAM, expands 8 KB or 16 KB machines to 32 KB, and offers selectable BASIC and display ROM sets.

The current Tindie page instructs international buyers to contact Tynemouth with their address and requested options. A separate TFW8B listing was out of stock. Confirm the five- or nine-switch version, keyboard and display ROM set, shipping, and current fulfillment before ordering. The board does not replace video RAM or character ROM.

Sold outChecked Jul 24, 2026Ultimate 1MB Upgradeby Sebastian Bartkowicz / Lotharek

Adds configurable expanded memory, flashable operating-system slots, SpartaDOS X, and a battery-backed clock to Atari XL and XE computers.

The Brewing Academy collection marked its 2026-version package sold out on 2026-07-24. Lotharek still exposed a login-to-buy path for a closely related regular-firmware version. The TBA package includes the board, MMU and OS ROM adapters, a four-wire cable, and mounting parts, but no printed manual. A board without socketed MMU and OS ROM chips needs desoldering and new sockets; those sockets are not supplied.
