FYI
Thought this was pretty interesting and the price is just about right considering the amount of work it takes to make one of these. I mourn the sacrifice of the original #20 Schach cart, though. :(
Apparently, to make one of these one must find the European only Chess cart (#20) and add a chip and some memory and then load every Fairchild rom made from then and now (including Tetris, but of course, they can't talk about that in the auction.)
So, if you ever wanted to play Tetris on original Channel F hardware, or ever wanted to actually play a good game on the Channel F, this is your chance.
