John Bickerstaff, chairman of the national English computer club ICPUG, 
recently wrote me that Commodore UK has decided to distribute both the
1.3 Enhancer package and the 1.3 ROMs.  The Enhancer should be available
at your dealer either now, or within a week or two.  He said it was to
be sold for 14.99 pounds.  The ROMs should be available at approximately
the same time, but no price for those had been announced.

So - let us be legal.  Your dealer will sell you 1.3, and at a reasonable
cost, too.  That's less than I paid for mine!
