SYM-1 was Collecting, was: ZX80

---snip--- Hi A lot of SYM-1's seem to be showing up lately. Most with only the 2 2114's so I'd suspect that these are mostly unused or little used( most anyone would want the full complement of RAM ). There are a number of nice software things available for these on the web, including the ROM based BASIC. I'm off and on trying to restore an even rarer item connected with the SYM-1. I have a board called the FDC-1. This was a floppy controller card for the SYM-1 ( not made by Synertek ). I still don't know if the software I got for the original OS is correct or not. On Dallas' web page, he has a updated OS that is nice but I'd like the klunky original OS. The other item that is a little rare for the SYM-1's is the KTM-2 keyboards/monitor driver. These were a nice addition to the SYM-1. The KTM-2 came in a 40 and 80 column version. If you have the newer 40, it can be upgraded to the 80 column. Both of these items are rarer than the SYM-1 itself and I've not seen either show up on ebay ( but I may have miss them ). Last but not least is the SYM-2. This is an newer but reduced SYM-1 with an onboard regulator for +5. Dwight
