    I've got a ZX Spetrum that was my father's. It's a museum piece but it might very well be functional, I haven't tried turning it on

      I wish it were less of a pain in the ass to get a ZX Spectrum working in the US, otherwise I'd try to get one.

      Even if you can get the right power supply that runs on 120v and mod the video output so it uses composite instead of RF, it's extremely difficult to find a CRT monitor that will accept a PAL signal in the US. I refuse to use 8-bit computers with modern LCD screens, it's just wrong.
