all fit.

I thought they were 16K Timex/Sinclair ZX81's?

I never could get that 16K expansion pack to connect properly. I'd whack the

That membrane keyboard would leave your fingertips in pain after
prolonged uses. The first thing I did was wire a standard QUERTY
keyboard to my Sinclair ZX80* clone MicroAce**.

Didn't you love it when you spent 30min loading a 16k "flight
simulator", but sneezed at 29min and had to do it all over again?

I wired a red and green LED to the audio interface so I could tell
when I had the level within the correct range. It was pretty
reliable.

I interfaced the ZX80 to a Speak and Spell for voice output:

And constructed an ultrasonic link to an X-10 controller for home
control. It was a great hands-on digital education platform.
