I have just noticed ZX Spectrum in my collection with red button it the top right corner, it is not a mod - original. Tried to quickly find it on Google but could not. What does this button do :) (sorry it was in the loft so I could not try it)?
 
Don't you know the Red Button launches Skynet ;)
 
It looks like original as case is nicely shaped around it. Just above power socket.
 
SO, if you can not find it in Google it does not exists :). Looks like very neat job and button is blue :). Will post picture when back home.

Yes, I have realised this in day light. In the loft it looked like original :), anyway it is a good idea.
 
00.00001% It's a booster button that activates secret, dormant circuits, scarily advanced for that era, possibly added another 48k of RAM and a faster processor running at 10 or 15 MEGAHERTZ!!! :wooha:

Yeah, maybe even less likely than that. :picard
 
Lol!
