Bad assumption....  they had the Commodore name/logo but also noted
that they were MADE by Handic.  Commodore would never make such a
gadget.... they'd rather see us buy 8 1541's.  ;-)

]that C= made them.  Anyway I'm in the market for 1 or 2 of these
]puppys, and was wondering if anyone knows where and how much these
]things may be had for. (bad english huh).  PLEASE HELP.

Usually about $50, but I have seen VERY few of the units.  Mine is one
of a grand total of two I've actually seen.  The actual sale value
will probably be more closely related to how much the seller values it
at.  I traded a 64 for mine (I think?).
