Ah cool !, just the auction ive been looking for, thx guys The seller should be reported for false information though for his own gain as the roms are in fact dead easy to find on the internet via p2p.

The thing I find the most impressive is that the jerk lists 6 Kickstart roms, and still advertise it as being 5 :-D
