I can assure you this retro Battlestation is fully operational.

It also includes, not depicted or easily seeable, a sd2iec adapter, an Exos V3 module and a 154i floppy disk.

Time to play some Rainbow Arts classics!

And Bubble Bobble

You're right. I got a "Timex Sinclair 1000" at a garage sale, it's a 2KB modified ZX81. The other manufacturers you mention had more software available, and Commodore often played dirty.

I'm tempted to replace the TS1000's failing keyboard with one of those new ones with tact switches, but that's a bit of an investment for what would sit on the shelf anyway. My C64 at least still gets played and demoscene stuff showed off!
