Re: My new baby!

For me, I'm indifferent to the joystick connector as I don't use joysticks, preferring to use keys for any gaming (I've been accused with having hands like a child pianist already, so be nice :lol: ) Having thought more since seeing this, I'd like to see the SD card stay normal size, mainly as this ...

Re: Zxpand+ a review

Great review Moggy - can't wait to upgrade when I finally get one of the 8th batch (having been beaten to the others :D )

Would you be happy to share your ZX81 testing/thrashing program? Sounds very useful in shaking down repaired Zeddies :)

Re: "Different" ZX81's

In general for me it looks a bit like a chinese (or philippine) copy. :shock: See the distance, line position and torsion of each single letter. Looks crazy, nearly hand branded. Bildschirmfoto 2017-03-25 um 16.28.34.png Lots of ZX Spectrum ULA's with similar markings, Ferranti had a fab plant over...

Re: "Different" ZX81's

Nice Zeddy that one, Lardo - bet it's a 01 batch on the bottom of the 2C184E ;) so one of the first of these types of ULA. A chap from NZ sent me a pic of a 8127 2C158E ULA, also on a cream PCB, helps define the transistion from 2C158E to 2C183E nicely.
