- No. Since there is no cassette port on the SX, there were some software
- modifications in the kernal. Modifications are also present for a more
- readable default color scheme. A few programs will give trouble because of
- these.
-
- There are also minor differences in the user port and serial bus. A few
- hardware items have trouble with the user port and a few fast-load routines
- have trouble with the serial port.

-
- $25.
-
- For an SX-64, $75 to $100 seems to be the going rate.
