This auction includes an Aquaricart Album Cartridge and a 32K Memory Module in one convenient package, allowing you to purchase both cartridges together — at a discount and with combined shipping — in one easy step! See my other items for more details on both products.
About the Aquaricart: The Aquaricart is an album cartridge of my own design for the Mattel Aquarius Home Computer System. With the Aquaricart, you can enjoy instant access to the full library of Aquarius cartridge software: programming tools, educational programs, productivity applications, and games! It also includes all of the original instruction manuals and overlays, exclusive historical information and trivia, and Quick Reference guides ... all in electronic format, so they can be printed with the Aquarius Thermal Printer or viewed on-screen through an easy-to-use, menu-driven interface! Here is a video review by "The Immortal John Hancock" featuring the Aquarius computer and the Aquaricart in action:
About the 32K Memory Module: The 32K Memory Module is a direct replacement for Mattel's original 4K and 16K memory modules, and expands the Aquarius to the maximum amount of "flat" conventional RAM that it will support (without using the memory space reserved for cartridge software). It is of interest mainly to programmers who need more memory to work with than the paltry ~1.7K of free RAM in the unexpanded Aquarius, but it is also useful to those who want to try the interesting library of Aquarius cassette software, most of which required expanded RAM. An instruction manual is available in PDF format here:

(NOTE: Owners of the new Aquarius+ computer do not require the 32K Memory Module, as the Aquarius+ already has expanded RAM built in.)
Both of these cartridges are fully assembled and ready for use with your Aquarius. Just insert either cartridge into the cartridge port of the Aquarius computer, label side facing UP, or insert them together into the "Program" and "Memory" ports of the Mini Expander with the label facing the FRONT, as shown in the pictures. A printed instruction manual for the Aquaricart will be included. EDIT: The printed Aquaricart manual is now out of stock, but it is available in PDF format here:

(NOTE: I will only ship to PayPal confirmed addresses. No bidders with zero or negative feedback, please.)
