That seems to be a reasonable price. A 200LX sold the other day for about GBP60.
It has a PCMCIA slot and a serial port and is basically just a miniature PC/XT so I'm sure it will be useful for something.

Can it run the Gorilla game in QBasic?

It arrived this morning. The words 'wow' and 'cool' spring to mind.
It should run Gorilla and Nibbles, but QBasic is not included on the machine. I would have to transfer it on using a serial cable, or maybe using the 1MB PCMCIA SRAM card, which needs its battery replacing.
I will have to find out whether a compact flash card will work.

That 1MB SRAM card will also work in an Amiga A600/A1200 to add 1MB fast ram.
If you haven't played a classic game in years, it's never too late to start!

It will, but would be a bit pointless considering that I already have 128MB of fast ram
