Who would really want it?  Looks like a pile of useless bits to me!

Dev-kits are often sought after.. I've seen people chasing after Amiga ones, Playstation, Nintendo among others.. but never seen an example like this for the CPC before

I guess one man's trash is another one's treasure.

That's what they say.

Wow, it went for less than a regular 6128 Plus! Have any of these ever turned up before?

I bet we'll see this selling for £1000+ a couple of years down the line. I wish I'd seen this thread earlier!

Yeah, give it 7 months.

I saw this book, it is one of the best CP/M programming books for CPC.

Only out of curiosity, what is this version of CPC 464 with the BOS 2.1 SP 512 rom ? https://www.ebay.fr/itm/126002251956

A 512 KB memory extension for CPC 464?
I found these 2 photos on CPC-POWER for a Vortex card.

More flexible but not compatible with the 6128s PAL or the dk'tronics de facto standard.

It's a bit of a collectors item but the 380€ is WAY off.

Ok thanks for all this info. 👍

Also important, they are very unreliable due to the amount of connections they needed. When they work they are good, but even moving the computer from one desk to another could mean having to open the computer and reseating the connectors before it works again.
