Chill out folks, not to worry.
I'd be skeptical of the thing working anyway. Assuming that the
'FREE MAC' is legally using Mac ROMs, it'd be an expensive project. Just
trace the history of Magic Sac and Spectre. Not only will there have to
be hardware development but also software driver development.
And, as was earlier mentioned, the Magic Sac can be had for as cheap
as $40.00. That would be a difficult product to beat for the price and
it can do a lot of good things as long as 128k roms are not required for
a particular application.
As it is, I've the Spectre GCR and think it is worth the funds that
I saved up for to buy it. For that money, I've gotten a professional
product that WORKS, and support from Dave Small that makes me wish that
he was in charge of Atari corp, shaping product development, but even
more importantly, CUSTOMER/DEVELOPER RELATIONS. But, I'll stop. I could
spend pages of typing in my defense and praise of David Small. If he
and Fast Technologies were to team up and build their own computer, I'd
buy it in a second.
