I forgot that you're one of the goto guys when it comes to old boxes :) Yes, the Sinclairs that I've collected are T/S 1000's. And I should prolly peruse your site for the Commodore stuff too. I've got a Vic20 and a couple of C64's, but I never fire up the Vic20. The Commodore 64 machines I use (on occasion) for packet radio, but more often I use my old XT based machines. It's really nice to have a small supply of 8 bit ISA NICs ;) - -- Bradley D.
