#173 — Couple of rare Spectrum items on sellmyretro.com

I have just listed a couple of auctions which will start tomorrow just
after 6pm UK time.

There is a boxed fully working 48K Issue 1 ZX Spectrum, complete with
original faceplate still with cellophane wrapper on it: [url]http://
www.sellmyretro.com/offer/details/%2ARare%2A_Boxed_Issue_1_48K_Sinclair_ZX_Spectrum_Home_Computer-1466[/url]

and also a Swift Disc interface, complete with original 3.5" disk
drive : [url]http://www.sellmyretro.com/offer/details/
Rare_Sinclair_ZX_Spectrum_Swift_Disc_Interface_and_Drive-1467[/url]

Does anyone have the microdrive emulator disk for this as it is not in
the Archive at WoS!

I used to have both Swift interfaces, the one built into the if 1 cases and 
the one in the rectangular box. Both  with the microdrive emulator of 
course. They were good, but not as fast as the +D.

I have to admit, I prefer the PlusD, but then again, the Plus D does
not allow you to use microdrives at the same time as the disk unit !

I'm just trying to remember this. There were various versions as I recall, 
and in the later unit you had a piggy back pcb with the hardware emulator on 
it. Thus there were two versions of the software at least, though I had 
about seven different ones at one time!


I like so many things  may well have these but nowadays with no way to 
access all my old discs and being blind I'm a bit stuffed!

Ah - I just realised that the URL for the Swift Disc is split up - it
is http://www.sellmyretro.com/offer/details/1467
