That is an awesome description!  No one can say that you are not up front about describing what you are auctioning.

Yup, still have my boxed copy. Ah, wait... I think mine is the linux version. Looks like Red's is the Windows version. I wonder which is rarer? If I recall, once you had it, you could register as a developer using the included serial number.  I think my account is still out there on Amiga.com some where. If my serial number is any indication, I'd say they probably sold less that 10,000.

The best part about this item...??? The pretty colored box. :-)

Honesty in an Ebay auction!  An Ebay first!

 I like the sticker (and only it).
Goodbye people.

I\'ll pop on from time to time, RL is acting up.

Red, where did you find my long lost Party Pack?  It had been lost in the mail for so long I had started to give up hope that it would ever arrive or be found!
