Hello Tony
I am interested in selling a Master 128 computer.
I was referred to your site by a friend in computing.
I thought that I might boot it up again, and with the use of its RS232 port I would use it
as a controller for a variety of electronic projects (such as are sold at Tandy's or
in Australia Dick Smith Electronics's).
But I have become more interested in traditional photography.
It is a BBC master 128 computer. And I have a circuit board to upgrade it to a 512.
I have the 2 manuals that go with it, each is nearly an inch thick, and I have the manual
from the computer it was derived from, the BBC B, again nearly an inch thick. The earlier
manual heavily complements the Master 128 manuals; it is a great shame it wasn't sold
with them. It would have saved me some grief.
I also have a workshop manual for it including wiring diagrams and diagnostics.
I have two single 5 and a quarter inch disk drives plus a heap of original discs
and software.
I have a stack of computer magazines, over 2 feet tall, which include programs and
electronics projects for interfacing all sorts of devices with it.
I used to use my colour tv as my monitor and an Epson FX 80 dot matrix as my printer.
Regards
David Constable
