Hey Allan, Yes the jaguar was two units, the main console which would play cartridges and the cd drive. There were comparatively few games released for the cd drive so if you don't get that it is not too critical. I am really not sure on prices because I have not check ebay and such in a long while. Btw was just checking some old backups and I appear to have lost all my stella stuff along with my archive of atari 2600 games, I had a couple hundred of them. Damnation! Fortunately a friend of mine has most of them I think so will have to try and get them back along with the new version of Stella.

Wasn't it two seperate game devices like Sega CD? How much does those things go for anyway, just for curiosity sake. allan ----- Original Message ----- From: "Tom Randall" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Sunday, January 29, 2006 1:57 PM Subject: RE: audyssey: Monty, of course > Hey Allan and all. > > As others have said you can pick these machines up at thrift stores > and > yard > sales and stuff like that usually for dirt cheap.
