That was the name of it on the box. It apparently was a way to help deliver presentations. It was a 90's looking Apple on the box; prior to DVD. Wish I knew more.

went to my local mexican fleamarket yesterday and I found a modded PS1 for $50.00MX!!!!

Thats a little over $4.00 US!

And It worked!

It had no cables or controllers, and I took a risk because there was a burned disc in it, when I took it home and opened it, there it was a MOD chip.

now I'm gonna go nuts downloading my fave games that I dont own!

I went to what was basically my first car boot sale today, and was surprised by what was on offer. Was especially surprised to find 3 saturn games (which I didn't buy because they weren't my thing), as I can't even remember a time when Saturn games were on shelves in shops in my hometown - I couldn't almost swear it had never existed! Besides that, I missed out on an original xbox and a gamecube due to only having £20 between me and my girlfriend, but I'm still happy with what we did get.

I got:
Wario Land II (GBC) for £1.50
Probotector 2 (GB) for £1.50
A red Game Boy Camera for £2
A Sega Game Gear with 3 games for £4 - The Jungle Book, Chessmaster and Aerial Assault
My girlfriend got herself Condemned 2 for 360 for £6


Unfortunately the Game Gear is suffering from the usual speaker issues - I can only get sound through headphones (even then, it's very quiet). Is this an easy fix? On the other hand, the screen seems in great condition, despite being a bit dusty under the screen, and it has both battery compartment covers - and I got it for less than the price of postage would've been if I'd bought one from eBay, so I'm pretty chuffed overall.

At less then four bucks, you should buy it because of the possible rarity! Pics if you buy it please.

Great find on the Trakball Hobie !

Did they actually advertise that it was modded?

Nope! It had some strange stickers on it covering the screw holes and there was a burned copy of Super Puzzle Fighter 2 Turbo in it. So I took A risk and bought it!

the mod chip looked really tiny too!

it played that burned game, some of my JP games and normal us playstation games!
