I'm not sure exactly what you mean. Solid? Translucent? Seems to me from
the few Timex models I've seen in action, the video is not so hot. Can be
tempermental depending what TV it is hooked to. Bad sync (not rock
stable), noisy and rather unsharp. Cheap design and manufacture all
around. At least it translated to a cheap price.
Does anyone know what the "ear" and
"mic" jacks are for (I know what
they're for, I just want to know WHY they're there). It's the only BASIC
machine I've seen with a MIC plug. Or is it to connect a tape deck to?
Bingo. Save your own programs or use commercial ones. There are a few
programs of the "home accounting" ilk released by Timex Sinclair as
cassettes.
