It is the guy selling this with any BASIC, 32-1 games, ... Nice to have dedicated programs in ROM this time.

Also a bit stupid that they didn't keep to the original PCB dimensions so that you could use an old cartridge housing.

Heh, yeah, was thinking the same when I saw the photo where it's plugged into a Plus...
