Looking foir a TS1500
Looking foir a TS1500
does anyone have one? also, it needs to have all the required cords
In Heck, there are two options for perpetual torment:
Eat the Puckerberry and suffer for eternity:
drink nothing but a cocktail of The Last Dab and Mexican Cake blended and served with
habanero slices

They go for a lot for some reason... I don't understand it. There must be more SInclair collectors in the US than we think.
Re: Looking foir a TS1500
I have bought two. And since there are so few of them they are more expensive.
I think that the fact that they are the "better" TS-1000 design points to the reason they are more valuable.
In my opinion, this means that if Timex had come out with these first, they would have caught on and possibly catapulted Timex to a notable position in computer history.
The next computer with similar silver styling was the TS-2068...
I loved the idea of the TS-2068 system with 80 col printer microdrives and even bought one though it was difficult to find some of the peripherals.
Lack of software killed demand for hardware.
