In the past, I've done business with this gentleman and he sells genuine working Amstrad software / hardware (I've bought quite a lot from him over the past year!)

I hear this is quite a rare item these days....

Thanks for the blatant, and shameful plug

Since we're doing these shameful plugs... I have a CPC with modulator and games that needs a good home.

Er.... frak. It just dawned on me I have one of these... though not boxed.

Nah, I watched an RS232 sell for over 350 GBP a year or so ago.  I know, 'cos I bowed out of the bidding whilst the price was still < 100 GBP.

DAMN! I also have one, the Amstrad-branded one!!! Is the crap in my closet worth so much??

Someone's in for the surprise of their lifetime when they realize that a 256GB SSD this is... not!

[MacDeath]

Wow, 327£....

Damn, I wish I had a box for mine.

so it was basically a hard drive that lost the data when powered off?

Technically no, but from a users perspective yes. Although it is probably a bit faster than the harddrives of the time.
