This is listed on eBay Australia... could be a great buy for a Commodore user "down under". :)

That was mine. I sold it to someone who sold it to Have Fun Shane a few months later. It works but the workmanship leaves a lot to be desired. I'm quite curious to see what it sells for because I sold it for $200 more than I paid and the person I sold it to sold it at a $200 loss. Incestuous little community we've got going here.
See, airship, not only do I know everybody, I'm wheeling and dealing with them too. :)
Thanks to the fact that the Australian dollar is now back to trading at around $1.50 per U.S. dollar, the AU$250 starting bid is about US$166. I guess that's fair enough... Still, if I were selling it, I'd start low and let it go high... But I guess some people just like paying big fees to eBay.
hehehe... "Have Fun Shane". ;)

With that exchange rate, it starts me thinking again about that long-delayed trip to Australia.

Well, as long as you're down there, you might as well stop in and see New Zealand, too. Their dollar is at $1.67 for one of ours. ;)

Aren't there just 2 Commodore users in New Zealand? ;D

I'd be disappointed if you weren't.
So who's having your baby? :)
Yeah I think there are only 2 NZ members on this forum.
Visit NZ though, it is green and has real mountains...

Are you saying the ones in the U.S. are fake? ;)

I didn't know that NZ has electricity. I figured those two Commodore users had a battery rack next to the desk. =D
Maybe they use emus or wombats or dingos on treadmills or something.
Actually, I doubt that 'New Zealand' really exists. After all, can anyone show you where OLD Zealand is on a map? I thought not. And the only place I've actually seen 'New Zealand' is in a fantasy movie. Makes you think.

Actually, while Zealand
is the largest island in the country of Denmark (that's "Sjælland" in Danish), New Zealand was named after the Dutch province of Zeeland (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zeeland).

Ah, you are right. My apologies to my C= brethren in the HCC Commodore of the Netherlands. :)
