Re: Can any ZX80 gurus confirm this statement?
My understanding is that the upgrade kit from Sinclair included a keyboard overlay and a new 8K ROM. What Sinclair called this, I can't say for certain, but my understanding is that it was the same as a ZX81 ROM.

Re: ZX81 Comp. Mod, no Video
You talk about seeing a composite video signal. What test equipment are you using?

Re: RAM Packs Alternatives?
Can I assume that all of these should also work with the Timex Sinclair 1000? As a TS1000 is a ZX81 with a differently labelled keyboard, screened case, different modulator and 2K internal RAM instead of 1K, yes, 16K or larger capacity RAM packs for the ZX81 should work fine with a TS1000. Mark

Re: M1 / printer interface
The ZX81 uses mode 1 (IM 1) so does not care about what is on the data bus. Hence you don’t need to worry about /M1.
