The custom case for this cart is described as "frigging ace" by the producer, and i can see why .
An old vic cart just wouldnt do it justice, for me.

For 20 quid it going to have to be better than the 3D printed prototype I saw.

20gbp for a VIC20 cartridge case is simply too much.

I was mailling Dave a few weeks back. I suggested adding SJLOAD to the cart menu, either he didn't want to or didn't know what it does so said i can load directly from the SDCard myself. Currently the ROM is V5.0c and it is shaping up really nicely. However I stil feel for 45gbp posted to UK (or 55gpb to Europe) I would not be getting much or any value over and above my V2.3 card with DIP switches.
