 Hi,

  Tangerine (the Microtan)  
 ....
 Oric (offshoot of Tangerine, made Oric-1 and Atmos)  
 I'm 99% sure that Tangering = Oric. ISTR that they changed their name from 
 Tangerine to Oric when they launched the Oric 1? 
IIRC, the Tiger was also a Tangerine design (although made by HH 
electronics).

...
   Memotech

 Originally a maker of add-ons for the ZX-81, RAM packs etc. Great machines 
 IMHO. 
I was given one recently. The mechancial design in beautiful, the case is 
mafe from 2 anodised aluminium extrusions and 2 end plates. To get inside 
you remove one screw at each side and the top extrusion (carrying the 
keyboard) hinges up. If you want to go further, unplug the keyboard 
cable, remove the end plate at one end (2 more screws), then slide the 
extrusions apart.

Is the manaul for these machines on the web anywhere? I remmeber seeing 
it on paper many years ago, and IIRC it contained not only a schematic, 
but also the PAL equations for the 14L4 on the logic board.
