@Eccles one of your Speccys?

is it a 48K, a 128K, or an Amstrad Version?

They're both rubber-keyed 48Ks, got em about 10 years ago for spares, finally got round to trying to fix em

i would love to get a Speccy

to bad i live in the USA

I'm using them to practice repairing on before moving on to some of my rairer stuff to restore

THE FUCKING PLOT
