I've bought domains off GODaddy auctions before, they always look like that.

I will wait and see. If his prices are reasonable that change my mind. Maybe Sean might be good guy after all. I don't trust anybody.
 
 I have seen  a lot of old post from Barry. I am not saying either side are right and wrong. Some business people (Barry was in this camp while he was alive) believe that negative attention is good for a business. Which it is not in my view.
 
 I don't think the old company Commodore International is going to make anything. It totally dead as far as I am concerned.

I beleive it might be a quirk of WHOIS. If you look at the renewal it is something like 41 days after the expiration of the domain. There is a grace period where you can renew, or they auction it off, of 42 days. This 41 days falls just short of the date when the domain is completely killed off. So the expiration date for 2015 will be correct, based on when the domain was registered. The renewal date fell within the grace period. Hence why the renewal date is diffrent from the expiration date.

Don't you hate when that happens. Don't worry lots of people fall for it. I'm sure you'll be able to find a use for it:
- That door that won't stay open, or closed.
- That boat anchor that isn't quite heavy enough.
- A gift to someone you don't really like...etc.

Hey, it's a cute case, it's only US$250.  Why not?  Stick one of those FPGA emulator thingies inside and away you go.

I have the real thing already and it cost me a lot less than just the case!

$250 is less than a days wages for most.

Yeah but when you've got kids $250 spare is hard to find.

Just saying...

I always put a little cash away for "toys," this will come out of that money.  Only other thing on my radar this calendar year is a 5.3(?) inch iPhone 6.

Computer Case $250
 Parts                $250
 
 Total                $500
 
 
 Your problem would still be. That the keyboard does not work good with motherboards that are above socket 1155.
