Great product I didn’t know I needed.

For Commodore 64 USB keyboard and dual joystick kit

Plugged this in to my original childhood Vic=20. Then plugged that in to my raspberry pie running on RGB-Scart.... what a combination!!!!! It’s like having my Vic=20/C64 back. Works perfectly. A few wee software issues when setting up. But this was nothing to do with this product. If you think you might want this. Then you need to buy it!

Single best peripheral

For Minstrel ZXpand - SD card disk drive for Minstrels

Thanks for bringing the mass storage ability to this. I had bought the standard edge connector version of this, but the wobbles drove me crazy. So I modified with a 100x100 mil edge connector and it works perfectly now. Perfect peripheral. Thanks!

Brilliant little kit!

For Minstrel 3 - ZX81 Compatible computer kit

Very easy to put together with excellent documentation. The video quality is really nice. With the added ZXpand, this thing is alot of fun and very useful. I have a couple ZX spectrum programs I can now convert over using the 32K available.

Great product, any PET owner should have one

For ROM/RAM replacement board for Commodore PET

This board saved me hours that I would have otherwise spent swapping around RAM chips, sourcing ROM chips, etc. It makes diagnosing and fixing a PET a breeze.

In a class of its own

For ZX Spectrum 128K +2 USB Keyboard Conversion Kit

This is an expensive piece of hardware, but for the very specific purpose it's designed for, it's absolutely worth the cost. It's made with what is clearly years of experience hacking Spectrums, and makes what would otherwise be an extremely time-consuming and complex process - manually wiring up an ancient and quirky keyboard - easy as pie. I especially like the fact that some very useful, extra non-alphanumeric characters that have been added to some of the keys. It also came with sticky mounts and a USB-B to USB-A cable, all of which were appreciated.

The only thing I would wish for is the ability to manually reprogram the key assignments - as it is, the extremely, uh, unique design of the Spectrum +2 keyboard makes some basic commands, like Ctrl-C, not work in Linux.
