I don't know much about electronics, and the only question I have about
this kind of device, is : how come your device and Rick's CFFA cost
about $100, when the MMC64 for Commodore 64 is readily available for
EUR49 (incl. shipping) and the 1541-III is scheduled for released in
september at an announced EUR50.

Could you please explain why Apple II devices cost twice as much as
Commodore devices ? Are they more complicated to design ?

(Please note this is no troll, only a candid question from a
technically-challenged Applemaniac ;-)
