Isn't it ironic that BEST is actually the WORST on many levels?

The hardest part is usually persuading him to actually sell you what you ask for.
Intro retro computers since before they were retro...
ZX81->Spectrum->Memotech MTX->Sinclair QL->520STM->BBC Micro->TT030->PCs & Sun Workstations.
Added code to the MiNT kernel (still there the last time I checked) + put together MiNTOS.
Collection now with added Macs, Amigas, Suns and Acorns.

It would be fair, and even a bit charitable, to call Brad "eccentric". Some people have very good experiences with him, while others have an excruciating time trying to purchase things from him, and there often seems to be no rhyme or reason to any of it. I have purchased from him only once, quite a few years ago, and things went fine, but you can find stories in the forums that run the whole gamut of customer experiences.

I've done another capture. I don't understand why the first action of cpu is to write $FFFF. Another curious thing is that /DTACK is totally inactive...

At one point a couple years ago he had MSTE's listed as in stock but to call for a price. He told me he had pallet loads of them in the warehouse but he wouldn't sell one without a referb/checkout and all his technicans were flat out with other things and he couldn't say if they would ever be able to get to them.

They are exensive but ship very quickly if you do purchase something. Have had no issues with anything I have gotten from them. Its just easier to go else where if possible.
