I personally would not have changed anything about the original Spectrum. I think it was just right for its time, and intended target market. The Spectrum 128, on the other hand... It was such a pity that it didn't include better graphics capabilities. -

What is difference between "128" and "128+"?What is the difference between a "Spectrum 128" and a "Spectrum 128+" ?? And I am not talking about the different looking +2's, etc. Tnx! blakes…
There isn't actually a 128+ - it's just that the original Sinclair Spectrum 128 looks like a Spectrum 48k +. I don't think it was called the 128+, but I'm not about to start being pedantic. -

Spectrum 128 - digital or analog RGB?Does the Spectrum 128 output an analog (Amiga / Atari ST-style) 15kHz signal or a digital (IBM CGA-style) 15kHz signal? Tnx blakespot
Hmm... Perhaps it (Spectrum 128) won't work with my Amiga 1084S RGB screen afterall...

Spectrum 128 - digital or analog RGB?Does the Spectrum 128 output an analog (Amiga / Atari ST-style) 15kHz signal or a digital (IBM CGA-style) 15kHz signal? Tnx blakespot
So what does the Spectrum 128 want, a digital PC CGA style RGB monitor?

Actually, my Commodore 1084S appears to have both analog RGB (currently connected to my Amiga) and also "TTL RGB" input - is that not digital RGB, of the type the Spectrum 128 wants?
Tnx

So I still need to find a US power supply that offers the higher voltage DC out (higher than the 16K / 48K) that the Spectrum 128 requires. Anyone have any ideas of a compatible unit?
Tnx.
