Acorn BBC Micro 32K + 32K Deluxe

[TheCorfiot]

Hello Chums

I have for your perusal here another Amibay Exclusive,
May I present the TC Hot-rodded BBC Model B Deluxe in Mint condition.

There is not a mark or hint of yellowing on the case & the function key strip is almost new.
It really looks like it was just pulled out of the box.

It's an Issue 7 (final board) with the cool running Video Processor & in superb condition, see pic.

It is also fitted with a 1770 WDC Disk Controller which is a cut above the std 8271 and means this Beeb will run quite happily with std PC 3.5" floppy drives too.
As well as Double Density Support, it also gives the User Full Access to any Disc filing system including DFS & ADFS (both included)

64K RAM you ask, Well the system has 32K RAM as std but I have modified the board and added 32K Sideways RAM as Banks F & B. similar use as to the Master series.

The mainboard also has the std 16K MOS ROM but a custom 64K ROM in addition that holds.

1 Acorn Basic 2
2 Acorn 1770 DFS 2.26, includes form & verify & support for 3.5" drives
3 Acorn ADFS 1.30, read & write Master and Arc Discs.
4 Beebaid V1.01 --- For Sideways RAM Housekeeping + more very useful tools

5. Also Included an Official Acorn View Word processing Rom including Function Keystrip. -- Strip is in perfect condition.

So in total 96K ROM firmware out of the box.

And...............you can still have 2 Empty ROM sockets left for whatever else you would like to plug in...which will accept 16K,32K & 64K Roms as std...

This upgrade is non obtrusive & invisible, it does not use any xtra boards.

As a big Plus this machine also has a ZIF socket mounted on the front which allows you to quickly swap Sideways Roms, it has been modified with extra addressing to accept 16K/32K Roms, ie 1 or 2 banks visible at the same time.

The Power Supply has been fully refurbished as has the whole machine & all ports tested except UHF output..

Resource CD also included with Software, Tools & Manuals.

Asking £76 UKP & p&p of £6 via p2g, sorry but EU only.
Buyer to pay Fees or paypal gift.

Any questions please fire away... With Sideways Ram Capability, 64K Sideways Rom support, Quick swap ZIF socket and the 1770 Disc Disc Controller, this is one of the Most Powerful & Cleanest Beebs you will Find.

Caps Lock just sets the system to upper or lower Case Alphabet.
ShiftLock sets the system to always produce shifted keys without holding the Shift down.

Caps lock locks caps. You can still type numbers. Shift lock locks the shift key, meaning pressing 1 will get you an exclamation mark.

Damn, beaten to it . Where's the 'delete post' button

[TheCorfiot]

Now includes free BBC RGB Scart Lead for LCD / CRT TV or monitors, also suitable for 1084

Hi there

Royal mail parcel force, via parcel2go would Like £27+vat.
Its a reliable service as I regularly send to my daughter in Thessaloniki using this service.

Of course the system would be well packed to survive the trip.

Wow nearly read that as "I regularly send my daughter to Thessaloniki using this service.".

Shame I'm spent up for a while. I would snap this up. a very clean looking BBC.

I have no experience with the BBC apart from my school days as we couldnt afford one so we got a dragon 32 and then a C64 instead.

PM'ing questions before I express interest - so until I post again, anyone who wants this is in front of me .....
