  • More CurrahAnyone used the Currah Microspeech interface on a 128K (or +2) Spectrum model?

    Very interesting, becuase I just tried one on my 128K a couple of days ago, and the machine started up with mumbo-jumbo colours. I thought it might be a duff interface, but after what you say, it may be a compatibility problem with 128K machines.
