For one that is working as well as that one appears to be? I was considering
it, although it would have been the financial equivalent of passing a
large kidneystone. Still, there are few 65s, and probably only a handful of
ones that function in any meaningful sense. They really are holy grails to
us Commodore nuts.
Up until shortly after the 2005 Classic Gaming Expo in the UK my Rev 3 C65
was working fully too, and certainly turned heads every time it was
exhibited. I had to really keep an eye on it because a couple of wags kept
putting it in C64 mode :)
I really need to update my own web page too, particularly now that I know
why the C65 was created in the first place....

And no, even with the current USD/GBP exchange rate I still couldn't afford
$5K!
