Here is a disc only Acorn Electron system - the cassette socket is broken.:(
Disc images of almost all Electron software can be downloaded from acorn electron world (http://www.acornelectron.co.uk/c-library.html), 8 bit software (http://www.8bs.com/cattbi.htm) and similar sites. These can be burnt to floppy discs with Omniflop on a PC.:)

The system comprises:
1. Acorn Electron in good condition - slight darkening to the yellow case.
Comes with original psu, UHF TV cable, User Guide and Advanced User Guide.
2. Acorn Plus 1 expansion unit.
3. ACP Pres AP34 disc interface - an AP3 converted to AP34 giving both ADFS and DFS.
The DFS has RAM workspace in the unit so can use PAGE=&E00.:)
If you get an ABR SWRAM cartridge, Pres ADFS E00 can be run over the ADFS in the unit giving PAGE=&E00 for both filing systems.
4. Dual 3.5 inch disc drives with a molex power supply unit and all cables.
The drives are modern 3.5 inch drives that auto-sense DD discs (no hole in the corner).
Could be used with a 5.25 inch drive with molex power socket.
5. Discs:
a) Copy of Acorn ADFS Welcome/Utilites disc.
b) 2 x ADFS discs of Professional games - see image for titles (25).
c) DFS disc of Professional games - see image for titles (5).
d) ADFS disc of Magazine games in BASIC - see image for titles (18).
e) 3 blank formatted discs.

I'm looking for £80 + p&p for this system.
p&p £10 to UK.

Interested. Do you know if this will work with a HxC floppy emulator.

Edit: Going via the UK so don't worry about quote to Ireland :)
