not that surprising if you consider the the kind of tech under the hood.  with the combination of ferroelectric RAM, driverless USB operation and the amount of research that abrasive put into making this all work smoothly, i was actually a little pleasantly surprised that it wasn't closer to $130 or so.

I've been using a dragnderp for a few weeks now and i gotta say, i'm glad i made the purchase.  the extra cost is a worthy premium in exchange for a product that "just works", as well as the confidence to work on tunes without the lingering worry of data corruption or losing save data.

you can get a full gb setup for $70 if you want. that's a polyphonic synth + sequencer for what, 20 pints of beer?

i don't imagine abrasive is going to make profit on these carts even at this price and if he does i don't think it will be enough to live on

just get the ems cart (or a second hand one) if you can't afford it

IT WORKS ON A MAC WITHOUT USING TERMINAL.

It's just a great convenience to be able to plug it in, drag...n derp. It makes the whole process so much faster... I don't have to start up VMWare (windows emulation) anymore just to transfer .savs and .gbs.

+1 for streamlining:)

...though my initial cart didn't work, haha. Sending it back and receiving another smile (knock on wood).
