 @a0f0052b @028ddb53 I remember seeing these in my Dads Tandy catalogue when I was a kid and really wanted  one.

We'll get yourself a little piece of nostalgia then. Even if it's a non worker your mad skills will have it running in no time. Maybe Josh @028ddb53 has a spare that needs a home. 
 @a0f0052b @028ddb53 I'm not sure what I'd do with one now tbh but it doesn't half bring back memories of reading the likes of the Tandy and Maplin electronics catalogues.
If I'm going retro it would have to be either Z80 or 6502 based. I once had the likes of a ZX80, spectrums all types a CPC 6128 and a trusty Apple II Europlus with 80 col card. Wish I'd still got them. 🙃

Yes once you start #Retrocomputer collecting, it becomes an addiction. You start with novel ideas like " I'm only going to collect the machines I had when I was young" then you start buying the machines you wished you had , then buying the machines no-one had.
You either run out of money or space, abit like me.

 @dab41b40 @028ddb53 
My wife would disagree.
