friend of mine asked about its provenance.... the reply was:
"I didn’t buy it and im not a competition prize winner . There is more than one but less than 10 were made . You can see all the provenance you need when you pick it up ."
oddly enough it now shows on ebay as:
it had 9 bids 2 hours ago

as you know jan, i'm not to bothered by the C64, but the SNext3 is available in PURPLE, so, i am tempted!

yeah, don't get me wrong, I do actually wish them well with this as it still 'supports' the retro community and interest.

ok, you are talking me around, i have now 'looked it up' and you are correct, there will be very little 'wiggle room' for making a profit, of course we don't know the actual build costs assuming they are placing 'bulk' orders, lets hope they don't end up with a 'a warehouse full of electrons!' :)

fair point, perhaps scam was a bit extreme, i like 'shady' better, but i still feel that it is overpriced and that may put a lot of people off. I much prefer the 'original' gear anyway to the point that my main interest is in repair / restoration and i rarely actually 'play' on the gear.

Yeah, I find that my 'scam' LED is flickering.... looking at the 'modern' version it is basically a $100 fpga unit selling for 400!
I wont be buying one.

didn’t trump discover the moron particle when he worked at cern, just after he invented the internet?

i use lego a lot for cases, much easier, plus i find that if you use these bricks for the corners you cal slide aluminium or abs plastic sheets in.
