I'm quite sure our Mr. Muscle was bald and showing one bicep, maybe from back.
Google is not a friend.

Presently, in the Sunshine State of Florida it is 91 F, 32.8 C with a heat index of 107 F, 41.7. RH is liquid air. And we are not yet in the hottest months. Those numbers will increase from 5-9 degrees F. Thank GOD I don't live in south Florida any more. They break 100 F multiple times during summer, we rarely do.

28C now and they are issuing heat warnings.
D'oh.
anyway. apologized to my bossboss for being sick. was told to take it easy and recover and get an overview on open topics before reporting on the project.
Old friend of mine (since high school) is taking care of his mother who is suffering from dementia (has been for the last 15 years and lost everything while doing so). His notebook went *boom*. I'll be donating him a computer to give him something to do and stay online.
Not looking forward to meet him though, he is struggling and needs to talk, but I got too much stuff on my plate too and do not feel fit enough to do psychotherapy (not intending to be nasty, but trying therapy on friends and family usually does not work ...)
Anyway. Prepared the computer yesterday. Nothing fancy, an old z87M-plus with an i5-4570, 16GB mem, 240GB SSD and a GTX 960. Should provide him with connectivity and a little bit of gaming options.
Anyway. I don't envy his situation. Will drop off the computer within the next 2 weeks ...
btw if any of you needs a bloody 'puter, I got plenty of those. Up to 64GB w/ RTX 3090. just drop me a note. Need to clean out some surplus stuff ...
Will try to get my act together and continue with that Dracula Pinball.
Here, have a look.

When we were in the greater Houston area in October 2016 we usually had > 100F plus thrudaroof humidity. I have no idea how hot it usually is during summer, but I also won't find out.

ANother DIP8 to pick your brain, if you know what it is / datasheet :
It's marked " C81DC ".
Again somehow Aliexpress has one for sale :
https://es.aliexpress.com/item/1005001738808933.html
But the ad doesn't say what it is, so not much help.
All Goolge can tell me is that most likely, this chip is made by Toshiba, and maybe it's an analog / Linear IC, and maybe just maybe, it could have something to do with fast signals like video signals, most likely in consumer gear I imagine...
Also possible, not sure, that this C81DC a code and not the actual part number, which does not help.
The winner gets a bucket load of ice cubes.

Thanks. So if... if this ebay ad is not full of shite, then it's a little serial EEPROM.... now need the datasheet for it so I can use it.
What ? You still have not found it ? I am waiting... >:D
