Spectrum Next

[ben76]

Speccy next looks good. I even saw a proto a bit ago

Vic cutting down a +2? I'm not sure that looks better? If the tape deck didn't work they had inputs on the back to bypass it didn't they? Or did I dream that? (probably the latter lol)

i think the vic +2 (hmm, is that the official name) looks much cooler cut down; tape deck just gets in the way especially in this day and age where we can now use sd cards etc

ps. i prob would have sprayed the case black to finish (not the keyboard of course though) so then the case is black coloured like the toast rack 128k speccy and the 48k+

should be original imo if not cut it down change the keys for leds that play music for each press... I'm all for modding stuff but keep it original as much as possible imo or at least reversible

I've been looking for a "toast rack" 128 ... but they are silly money...
