Hi guys,

check this out:

Looks like someone has replaced the ROMS and put some labels with arabic symbols on the keys. What do you think - hack or not?

This is great! We'd need to know if the specific ROM is any different from the one inside the Arabic XE.

We know virtually nothing about the African and Asian markets, there's bound to be some weird stuff out there...

Nir Dary probably has some knowledge about the arabic market.

It looks like the seller has a basement filled up with arabic Ataris:
