The controller should work, OS9 won't.

Worth going for even if you then wish you had a D64

and so the addiction continues!
here is hoping this auction goes for a somewhat more reasonable amount and not the £86 that the recent cumma drive went for.

Well yes, 86 quid does seem a tad ridiculous. If that was the one with the Delta cart, they do seem to be particularly rare, though.
Anyway, g'wan, you know you want 64K (for a start you'll need it to run my game when it's finally done - updated demo disk image on Monday assuming it all checks out
).

A-ha-ha
I think I'd find it hard to class anything I have as "spare", sadly...

i got distracted at the end.
i did however manage to win a Sharp MZ80k and and and a Kaypro II - so very happy about that.
still waiting for delivery.
does anyone else - collect / tinker in a larger sense away from just Dragons?
