Hi everyone,

I have a few ZX81, Spectrums and other Retro machines I spent my spare time reburbishing.

This one was my first machine with a Kayde Keyboard from 1981, a dream to use. I was shocked to find it in a box in the attic after I thought it was long gone. Its nice to find an old friend I first learned Z80 machine with.

The restoration of this machine is worth a few post some day.

Some call it the Marmite, I know it from back in the day as 'Lego' keyboard 48.

I used to work in the 8 bit games software business back in the day for my sins. These days old and grey I wrestle with an illness that causes eye and hand co-ordination problems. So I do a little often which is very theroputic. Keeps me out of bed and off the sofa :)

Other machines...
  • BBC B
  • BBC Master 512
  • C64
  • A500 Amiga
  • Silicon Graphics
