So, I've branched out a little. A schoolteacher friend of mine found a couple of classic Sinclair computers buried in the cupboards at his school: A ZX81, and a 48k ZX Spectrum+. The ZX81 was missing a power supply, and the Spectrum was missing nothing, but the keyboard wasn't working: A common complaint in old Speccies.
Here's the thing. I have a not insubstantial collection of old Speccies in various states of "not working", including a Plus and a Sinclair 128, both of which use the same keyboard, so I figured we'd be able to get both going in maybe an hour or so.
No. Ha.
