- I own a 32K RAM cart myself, but it was made commercially by Xetec. Just
- so that folks know they were out there, commercially, I mean.
-
- On the strange Tooth Invaders cart: so far, I haven't seen any ideas that
- I can buy, fully. Most fit some of the facts available, but not all of
- them. I don't know what's up with this cart, and apparently everyone else
- is guessing, too.
-
- But this definitely is a Commodore-produced cart, not a hacked-up cart.
- Why remains unclear.
-
- Has anyone given any thought to the record (I mean literally "LP disks")
- industry of years back? Used record shops sometimes have small-budget or
- small manufacturing run, demo type records available. But these are
- usually of things no one's ever heard of, from bands you've never heard
- of. My cart was by Commodore, and they did go into large production of it;
- I have the normal, mass-produced version as well, which is why my
- wonderment in the first place. But maybe the record industry analogy is
- worth exploring?
