Something important looking I found on eBay

I'm really sorry I know this is bending the rules but I thought some one might be really interested and there's only 4 hours left. I just thought it would be sad if there are only a few of these (if it's even real) and they were lost to the community.

I promise I won't do it again, :oops:


EDIT: oops, I just found a place in england that sells the same thing:

Sorry I just wanted to get this out in the open my mistake. Once again: :oops:

I gotta admit, that's a cool find. Anyone here thinking of going for it?

I'm having a go at it but I can't be there for the end of the auction, cause the network i'm on has an automatic shutoff on it and the auction runs to late, I'll see in the morning.

UPDATE:

Some further searching reveals that they also have these Cd's at:

http://www.myatari.com/atarists.txt

It looks like they are manufactured by the people who own the site since the one I purchased is marked B&C Computervision on the label. I have no clue what the legality of this thing is, or the legality of of redistributing the information on the disk, so I'd like to see what the mods think before I post anything from the CD (once I receive it that is).
