It is incredible. And when you consider the other odd gear I have (Soviet
synths and drum machines and other bizarre items), it looks great too. I
just got this cartridge for it "Music Composer", man is that the most
opaque program ever (I don't have the manual). It's easy enough to figure
out the synth part, it's just programming patterns/songs into it is what I
haven't yet figured out.

Well I got/am getting my gear from a friend, but looking at the site
www.cmdweb.de it looks like the stuff is still available...but I dunno. If
it is or isn't doesn't bother me personally, since I've got the stuff ;)
