Yes CBM UK are still selling the 3.1 native developers kit. You get the includes/autodocs and some other documentation like changes made to each subsystem. PCMCIA for 1200/600 as well :->. Kept me busy for a couple of days. It costs 23 pounds from CBM UK, haven't got the address here 🙁 Where are you, if you aren't in the UK then they may not send it to you. Actually I got the a1200 now (only 2mb chip and 80mb IDE), but wha the heck, I used to code on the CBM 64. The way it's going I might end up back on the old thing 🙂 Off on holiday for a couple of weeks starting on the 11th of April, so I will miss the April 21st auction :-< I don't think that it is going to happen now though, the magic has started to go out of the whole thing. A friend of mine that had a CBM128 & Amiga500 (1.2) is looking to buy a pentium :-(. As far as I see, he is selling out (insert text here on intel/microsoft conspiracy theory). Funnily enough the hard drive on the a1200 wasn't formatted, the previous owner was a coder, he had the source code from the realtime book on it and some of his own. It's a bit naughty but I will load it up some time and see what happens. Damn a1200, the monitor I use on my a500 doesn't work on it. Although my a500's modulator does work. The monitor is about 10 years old and was converted for the 500 but the image is too dark on the 1200. I have to use a TV on it :-<. WB3.1 works on KS3.0 🙂 (I bought it and only use it on one computer at once, honest). See ya Phill
