Work - yes. Capable of WRX high res graphics... maybe not. However, not that many games use it, so you should be good to go.

Re: RAM Packs Alternatives?
The problem with the wobble would probably exist with any RAM pack that used the same method to hook up to the ZX81, I believe. So you would probably be better off trying to find a way to stabilise existing RAM packs. If you do decide to do an internal RAM modification and you're comfortable with a ...

Re: Cursor off-screen

Re: SD extension on ZXpand+
Umm... I don't know. It's somewhere in the wire wool for cleaning the iron. Too small. I think I've got another of that type so I'll check when I can dig it out.
