The Starting Cart List Compiled by Smitty (smitty@world-net.net)
Ward Shrake list merger 8/21/97 - Previous authors who got things
this far are: James Carter (128 verified carts), Dean Dierschow &
Bruce Tomlin (some part numbers), Jim Brain (some cart names and
part numbers), Jerry Greiner (some carts and part numbers), and
Ward Shrake (who researched various old magazine listings, and
wrote the list up). Angelo Brigante Jr. has also been very helpful
in adding titles, as have other folks from the Internet Commodore
community.

=============================================================
What it all means...
=============================================================
Each cart has a number next to it, which is a running count of
the carts reported to me. A '+x' means that the cart is known to
exist, but no one has reported owning one. While the classic
rarity rating is not there yet, you can get an idea of how hard
it is to find by seeing how many are around in the collections of
others.
