Hm. Maybe.. Maybe we're just getting old? I mean, I'm visiting Vogons since roughly 2005 or so and I noticed that the enthusiasm has declined a bit since. The atmosphere here hasn't become bad in any way, no, that's not what I mean. Vogons is still a friendly place with awesome people. It's just.. …

Wow! Pretty nice when people throw in an extra item that's could be worth twice as much as the item you purchased. A boxed Music Quest clone card with a Music Quest branded adapter... very nice! :) it's not even a clone, it is a music quest card (can barely see it in the picture, top right) though …

They are not that expensive. Some 65 US Dollars is the market price. They originally come with ceramic socket. They can take …

Lemmings uses a resolution of 640x350, not 320x200. only the menus... which has giving me headaches trying to capture it, because my capture card doesn't like switching between these resolutions sometimes ^^ 1600x1200 would be the correct pixel perfect scaling resolution, as someone else said, …

I wish ^^ almost nothing I get is NOS, most from scrap lots or just single loose cards, I just dusted them off a bit before taking pictures, the WSS is quite scratched. occasionally there's the odd boxed one in there. as long as I get them to work I'm happy 😀
