    Very Nice for me the best ZX Spectum I had was the 128K Toast rack I had a 48K rubber keyboard, Then I went to the Amiga A500. I use the ZX Spectrum and Amigas A1200 and the A 500+. My best game was Elite on the 128K, I know the sound chip only had three channels but this was a very big leap fron the 48K sound.

    Something like this (despite the price) is good for those who aren't technically minded, or those who just don't have the patience to faff about getting all the components, games, emulator(s) etc and then trying to set it all up.

      Hi Ruskie. I'm selling the product on ebay with 35 pounds. Because I'm from outside UK, I had to add the shipment costs. Because UK is not longer in UE, you have also to pay taxes like 7-9 pounds. I understand that you find the price is very high, but if you buy from UK, the Raspberry Pi Zero, case, 16GB micro SD card, OTG cable, mini HDMI cable to HDMI, power adaptor 1000mA and USB to micro USB cable for power adaptor, I believe you reach somewhere between 22-25 pounds. The difference from 22-25 pounds to 35 pounds is my work for optimizing the product. I do this as pure hobby and not as business. I believe everyone who loves ZX Spectrum and find this piece of equipment useful and he is not so in technical details, ZXBOX is an alternative! And yes, ebay is taking 2 pounds as fee. Regards and cheers. P.S. I'm not selling the games. I'm selling the product and all the games can be downloaded from world of spectrum
