$19,95 for Satan`s Hollow like many other A8 carts there...
I already have one of them in my collection.

Well,

Superpacker (PC-Version) also includes MADS.EXE - whenever I run my virus-scanner manually it deletes this file, because it thinks its a trojan... so I made several backups of Superpacker and MADS.EXE on USB sticks and other media...

Well,

I think he is talking about the Atarimax/ABBUC USB-cart:
http://www.atarimax..../documentation/
and not the 1Mb or 8Mb maxflash-carts that everyone else thinks of.

The Abbuc USB cart is a nice toy, there are a few games that have been patched for it, but it is not so wide-spread, so I guess you will never get much software for it. And afaik, USB-SD card-readers mostly will not work with it, also printers, floppy-drives, hard-disks etc. that use USB-connection will not work with it since there are no drivers available for them and the A8. The only things that work with the USB cart are controllers, like some USB driving wheels, USB joysticks, etc. - and as said before programs that have been patched to work with the USB cart and these controllers (there is e.g. a patched Pole Position that works with an USB driving wheel). I do not know exactly how many programs have been patched for use with the Atarimax/Abbuc USB cart, but less than 10 for sure...

Edit: Replied too late, anyways, here is some software I have for the Atarimax/Abbuc USB cart (downloaded from Carsten Strotmann`s old wiki-page)... -Andreas Koch.

Well,

I did not want to... I just wanted to let walter_j64bit to know that there are two DOS standards in the A8 world: a) DOS 2.x and compatibles (this includes not only DOs 2.0 and DOs 2.5 but also MyDOs, Bibo-DOs, Turbo-DOS, etc.) and b) Sparta-DOS and compatibles. Personally I don`t think it is a good choice to be completely incompatible to both of these standards by using DOS XE - but as said before: To each his own !
