Hello from Auckland, NZ

Post by bbg384 »

Hi
My first computer was a ZX81, bought new back in 1981, from memory.
We eventually sold it and upgraded to a Commodore 64.
Over the last few years, I've re-purchased another Commodore 64, a VIC 20 and also a ZX81.
I have 2 ZX81's, in the hope that I can get one working properly, and get some 80's nostalgia while we are all stuck at home.
