Very nice, but at what cost!!=
He is nuts. Period.
Indeed, the ironic thing is of course that most of those components are
worth not that much at all as the ZX80 is pretty much LSTTL, standard
RAM, CPU etc.
I guess the board and case is rarer though, even so I think about 70,000
ish ZX80s where made so it's actually not that rare at all, though I
guess unbuilt ones are not that common.
One of the things I do have is a bare Jupiter Ace board, which I believe
only cost my wife ?100ish last cristmass, and they are cirtainly rarer.
Now if it had been a working Dragon Beta prototype.........
For those not in the know, only 3 where ever built, and only one is
known to still be working.
Cheers,
Phill.
