Could you not use a kepston interface with the expansion port on the back to plug in plus D? I know there are some that exist, I just can't find the names of them. Alessandro's question is mine too, because I'm interested in +D also. -

Haven't checked it out yet, but this slot looks suspiciously similar to the one in my RAM Turbo Interface. And that's Interface II compatible. -

Speccy +2 RGB to S-video?Okay, so I emigrated from dear old Blighty to a land rather less Speccy-friendly, the USA. I've finally managed to get a couple of Speccies over here…
Technically, yes (although you're right, I would have to import one). But that would require the purchase of a new PC, or at least other major parts of a PC (case, motherboard, etc), as I have precisely zero free expansion slots.

If it's one that connects to the expansion port - oh yes, it can screw the Spectrum up big time.

An Electron with a big expansion box was sold as an all-in-one comms device. It was also called Merlin but no second name. Interflora had them. I think they are mainly sold as BT products.
