W O W !!!!!!!!

See Don's earlier post for a description of the 4052. I have a 4052 and I
lack the ROM pack. I would be prepared to pay something quite substantial
for this if you are willing to part with it. Could you possibly ascertain
shipping costs to UK, and let me know whether payment in US banknotes is
acceptable? Please?

Amsoft sounds very Amstrad, I must admit, but I feel I must put in that one
system nobody seems to have mentioned that used 3 inch floppies was the
