Even older c64's with the 5-pin plug can use the three-wire system with
separated chrominance and luminance (I should know, I have one).  I believe
that most of the wires on that 8-wire plug are not connected, that there are
no additional signals brought out.  That means they chose an 8-pin plug for
some other reason.

There is a lot of c64 interest on the ARPAnet now.  I notice that the c64
discussion on ARPA seems to go on in INFO-MICRO.  If the ARPA people don't
know, there is a net.micro.cbm as well as net.micro and if they wish, they
can send commodore related material directly to net.micro.cbm.  (Just a
thought, not a flame)
