    Second thoughts.

    Oh dear, I think I've sprouted devil horns, or have been putting too much thunderbird in my coffee.

    Can we delete this thread I started? Me taking the piss out of new visitors however disagreeable is not good. It'll only cause problems, sorry everybody :-(

    R-Tape posted saying "please sell me one", "anyone" "anyone?" (or similar) a minute apart parodying a recent new (now banned) member.

    This thread probably looks well screwy now :lol: , in retrospect I was probably being oversensitive.

    (Just for the record though I would like a white ZX Spectrum if anyone's offering ;))

    The white Spectrum doesn't really appeal to me as much as the clear ZX80 (in Rick Dickinson's photos) or the Gold QL - if anyone has one of those lying around, please get in touch !!

    I was mailing with Jeki, as he is a Dutch guy.

    Apart from the topic on WoS he opened, he also found my via my website, and asked me for keyboard replacement options.

    Not only here on WoS, but also by me his patience was tested, because it took about a day to awnser to his posts and emails.
    As it seemed he didn't have that patience, and flipped out completely here on WoS.

    My last mail to him was that I would consider mailing Martijn to delete his terrible post in his topic.
    But I got a server reply that his email adress was deleted.
    So he does not want to be reached anymore.

    I feel a bit sad about him, as he is Dutch and I - and we - are only trying to help.
    But I know I don't have to feel bad, because it's his behavoir and character.



    So, back to more positive things: I will buy a paintcan with white paint, and pull one of my 48K's of the shelves.
    Let's make a good price... 1000 GBP is too much of course, redicolous.
    So I'll sell mine for 990 GBP! What a bargain!!!!

    The keys may be a bit sticky.. probably due to aging...

    I know an injection molding guy we use sometimes at work.

    ...if 3 or 4 of you want a white speccy @ 1000 quid each let me know...It might be worth paying the tooling fee for the mold and flood ebay with white speccies.

    Sorry guys, 1000 is a bit too much. I'll swap you a brown commode for one tho :p

    I can make pink C64's for the REAL Commo-adore users:

    Come on, pink iPad's are worth hundreds of euro's, so this must be worth a lot more, as it has real keys!

    Doesn't matter what colour it is, at least it's got a real keyboard.

    What about that gold BBC micro?

    Are you kidding me? Colour is everything! ;)

    Reminds me of The Simpsons:

    Moe buys an army surplus deep fat fryer which he claims, "will flash fry a live buffalo in 45 seconds." Homer immediately whines, "But, I want it now!"

    been toying with the idea to scan a speccy case and have it reproduced on a 3D printer

    Could be fun, I wouldn't mind having a novelty speccy in my collection.

    Wouldn't want a gold one though, far to opulent.

    I'd like a camoflague Speccy please :D

    If I don't get one then I'll repeat myself 5 or 6 times then have a nervous breakdown :lol:

    It's amazing, I see you have every model too!

    Is that desk for sale? I'm after a decent one and a futon to match but no-one seems to sell them these days...

    well I've got a grey +2 with velesofts mutant unrainer in it (contended memory now matches +2a), gonna do a stereo sound mod on it but what I really need it to get a rom blown with the SE Basic roms (Andrew's 128k editor with the original 48k rom)

    once that's done (tbh honest I can do this at any point) I'm going to cover the case in loading screens then seal it, hopefully it'll turn out allright
