Nor me. But the price is good so I am gambling. I have since heard from a 
reputable source that they have been known to ship defective cards and then 
replace them with defective cards but since this one says it is new I may 
get lucky.

Yeah, and I also noticed that a real Microsoft Softcard sells for much more, 
which is what enticed me to gamble.

Strangely, I goggled "Z-80 Expander" and got vitually no info. I's as if 
this never existed so I'll just wait and see what I get. Thanks for the info 
on this and of course the history lesson:) which is very much appreciated.

I'll post a description of what I receive and a synopsis of how it works and 
what steps I take to get this all together and put some diskimages online 
after it's up and running. Provided I don't get ripped-off...
