Looks funny - seems to be the board from Kiwisek/Grant Searle ...

Yes I think it might well be - I have spoken with him briefly - he has got his various bits made in Bulgaria - I am of course interested to see what his keyboard membranes are like !!

Looks like one of the first Grant's versions. I did a different silkscreen and never shipped anything to Bulgaria.

It is interesting - I wonder if it is the version with the errors in - as there were some errors in the early Grant revisions from memory...

It seems that there are quite many people interested in this board - 4 watchers per hour. ;)

I have never really understood why people watch fixed price items....

What are the options for TV output on this though - there is no modulator included that I can see !

Pokemon - you need to get some more of the ZX80Core listed :D

I like to do this as this is simple to remember a mighty interesting offer on ebay.
Sometime I want to do this without decision of buying or not, sometimes I want to see what an item's end price was.
Most time a ignore these items but sometimes I rember what I watched a few weeks ago and decide to buy it. :mrgreen:
This simply listed in your "my ebay" watching list.
It's more or less a bookmark. ;)

But what I wanted to say is, that in the screenshot above you can see there are "29 watchers" which clicked on the link to add to their watchlist and (I think this is quite new, never seen before) a window which says that an average of 4 people per hour look at this offer. So this mean about 96 pageviews a day. Normally the page view counter can be seen only by the seller if not explicitly integrated in this offer. So this is an interesting information, too.

By the way - it is sold now. :o
