Any series III for sale in Europe?

2012-10-18 by Peter K.

Since I'm still thinking about getting a series III, I just wonder: Is there any system for sale in Europe?
Regards,
Peter Kersten.

Peter just let me know that he has the RGB-01 boards ready to go, so the purchase will include the CG3 and the RGB-01 cards. My Series II will therefore have color graphics and be able to use a wide variety of modern monitors.
