Wanted

I do have most of the machines I’ve ever wanted – but there are a few that I dont have yet. They are…

  • Acorn Atom
  • Grundy / Newbury New Brain
  • Jupiter Ace
  • Sinclair ZX80
  • Camputers Lynx
  • Sam Coupe
  • Apple ][ card for A LCIII etc

I use a LG Flatron Wide M208WA LCD monitor as my display. It has VGA, DVI, Component, SCART, S-Video, Composite and RF inputs so any machine i’ve got can run off this screen. SCART in RGB mode is fantastic. And my more ‘Modern’ machines…

  • Apple iPhone 4S 32Gb in white running iOS 6.0.1
  • Microsoft Xbox
  • Microsoft Xbox 360
  • PlayStation 2 with Hard disk and LAN interface. (Dead :( )
  • PlayStation 2 slim
  • Nintendo DS Lite in Black
  • Nintendo Wii + Wii Fit.
  • Apple MacBook Pro 13″ running Mountain Lion with a 2.33Ghz CPU and 8GB RAM. Also 1TB time capsule.
  • Dell Latitude D630 running Windows 7. 2GB RAM and 2.2Ghz Core2Duo CPU. This laptop is used for emulation with MAME and a load of other emulators.
  • Apple ‘the new’ iPad 16GB WiFi + 3G/LTE running iOS 6
  • Apple TV 2
  • The VIC-20 PC (Currently empty. Did have a Raspberry Pi in it briefly)

I use a Teac BX-330 amplifier with a pair or cheap speakers for the sound system complete with a Ion Profile Pro USB turntable.
