I do remember conversations with a Tristan (it's a somewhat unique
name), but time has erased the specifics. I hope I was helpful...

As to the concerns, it's rather impressive how things have changed in

plenty to share concerns about in this hobby.  Now it's how many carts
can be placed in an X-Pander, whether EasyFlash 3 works on the C128, etc.
