Re: TI-H: Memory expansion: ESF
yet again, if this project ever continues it will be without competition.
There is no reason for competition. I have the money and recources to make
and sell the EIII (the lcd, link menu one) for $45. I also have a link
menu based expander for the 82 in beta stage, with 83 support right around
the corner. If you want to go ahed and make your own, fine. But I will
quit making all expanders.
