I might really really want one, but
this has gone somewhat above my "willing to pay" level. 73 quid! Ouch! Is it any of you?
Er, and if it is, can you verify the ROM dump when you get it?
I still wonder if there really are two versions of the ROM - it's been implied one (the one we seem to have available here) did single density and perhaps a later one double.

Heh, I was only interested in the controller and thought my bid for half that seemed a bit high... Ah well.

well i was surprised myself i admit. my comfortable bid was around 65, but i had, ahem... a couple of beers and thought i would ensure success with a bid for 81.
very surprised but the final price.
83? you cold nearly get an apple ][ and a disk drive for that.

Perhaps I lucked out on that, picked up an Apple ][ and two drives for nothing a few years back, mind I had to spend about an hour extracting them
from the big bit of lab equipment that they had been semi-perminently installed in, and then about an hour giving them a thorough clean.
But eventually I got them working.
Cheers.
Phill.
