Now we know why you were selling off your Anachronism stock... so you could stock up on cool gadgets from Jeri. :-D

Well yeah, sort of actually. With the free time I have I'm persuing 2 other interests. 8bit C= and RTFM (literally) UNIX/LINUX. I actally only bought 4 for myself, 2 were X-mas gifts. My original intention was 1 to hack, one to play with and 2 to collect. Now I have 4 to collect:-)

Looks like I'm a lightweight though. Some C= geeks are buying 10-20 at a shot. The price is so completely reasonable, why not I suppose.

Your right, the price is VERY reasonable.  What I'd like to see them follow up with is a real C64.  Basically the same thing, but instead of putting it in a Joystick, just put it in a box with ports for keyboard, joysticks, and disk drive.  If they really wanted to get fancy, they could also put in the cartridge slot.
