   Hi Paul,   
      
   PH> Yep Sir Clive Sinclair first produced the ZX80 followed by the even   
   PH> more popular ZX81. It was my first computer but the 16Kb RAM pack   
   PH> often wobbled and caused the computer to crash. I ended up hard   
   PH> wiring mine.   
      
   Yep, I did that too. I bought a proper keyboard from England.   
      
   The ZX-81 circuit board could be mounted inside and on the bottom there   
   was room for a folded-out 16 kb memory module and another could also be   
   plugged in.   
      
   BTW, I secured the plug-in memory with screws.
