Another fellow from Canada
Hi guys,
I've been reading a lot on this forum and now I decided to register. The Zx spectrum has been in my mind since I was a child but was unavailable in Canada at this time. I saw it in an encyclopedia long time ago. Fast forward 2 years ago and I acquired many Spectrums, that I repared, futurproof. I just bought a ZX81, because I have some project to develop a new clone as well as goodies around it.
I currently own :
Zx spectrum Issue 1, 2, 3, 3B, 6A rubberkey
ZX + Issue 3 and 6
ZX toastrack
ZX Harlequin 2D
N-Go
Divmcc, diag board, HDMI and many other goodies.. I think i started the hording disorder
Have a good one!
Marc
