What does the colour board look like, and where does it fit?
I still have my (almost) fully-loaded Atom
I was hoping that by 'fully loaded' you meant that it had the BBC BASIC,
Econet and Colour boards :-) (I've never seen a real example of the latter,
although I know that there's at least one in the UK) You know, I have a feeling that you can get 7805
regulators that'll handle 2A
There's the 78S05 (2A ,in a plastic TO220 pacakge, like the plain 7805)
and the 78H05 (5A, in a metal TO3 pacakge)
There's a lot of Atoms out there that have had the
regulators bypassed, no
sticker added, and then subsequently had 9V shoved through them :(

Ouch. I am sure that cooks a few ICs...
