Cool! :thumbsup:
I got one of Majsta's Vampire 600 accelerators today. Installation was pretty straightforward and it worked right out of the box. Here are a few pics with mandatory SysInfo. :)
Thank you Majsta for this wonderful accelerator! :)
Today I received some fun stuff in the mail:
80486 cooler (still with paste & fan) [----] (I will install this once I get the i80486DX33)
CT1600 Sound Blaster Pro 2 [----] (I will keep this as a backup / collection item)
IBM USB Floppy Drive [----] (works great)
I also went to my local Goodwill (thrift shop) and bought:
PC Game Raider joystick [----], NIB / NOS
IDE CD-ROM drive [----] (not installed yet)
DIN (with PS/2 converter) keyboard [----], NIB/NOS Micro Innovations

I also bought some stuff online, which should be on the way soon:
Sound Blaster 1.0 CT1320 [----]
i480486DX33 [----]
MS-DOS 6.0 with COA [----]
I am still negotiating for another Roland RAP-10, 3 X Roland LAPC-I, 2 X Roland MCB-1, 1 X Roland MCB-10 and 1 X Roland SCD-15. With some of these items I am not 100% confident sellers will get back to me. :D
Fun fun fun!
The PC Game Raider joystick works really well with the CT1690 that I installed in my 486 IBM. I have player Lotus - The Ultimate Challenge with it already this evening. Hopefully I can get some nice Roland MIDI once I get some more equipment in next week. :whistle:
My Play Expo purchases :)

As you can see I didn't buy much, mostly due to the outrageous prices by the vendors there :thumbsdown:
Cheaper on eBay even with the postage!
Picked up a couple of 2600 starwars games at play expo but as Fitzsteve said the prices weren't exactly great
There were some bargains to be had on the smaller stalls but all the business sellers were high, I guess they have costs to cover so it's maybe a little harsh to give them too much stick.
It was nice to see some of the rare items in the flash even if I couldn't afford to buy them :)
