I have a quad-pokey chip for sale if you want it. This is the single chip version that has 4 pokeys internally. It plugs in the same socket as the eliminator board. The Major Havoc PCB was originally designed to use these chips. Since there was an abundance of pokey chips Atari developed this daughter card to use common pokeys instead of the quad pokey chip, hence the name quad pokey "eliminator" board.
