Hi Everyone,
I joined this forum almost 2 1/2 years ago in preparation of me getting myself a Microbee to restore, but like many things life got in the way of me finding one, but I finally got myself one today.
It will be another week or 2 before I receive it and I'm sure I will be needing to ask many questions as this one seems to of had a lot of modifications done to it.
It is a Microbee 16 but has a MB1217-54 colour display card and a 56K MB1656 board on it.
I've previous restored a couple of pinball machines, Atari 6 switcher, ZX81, C64 and a C128, but this will be my first Australian made machine.
I remember using a Microbee computer in highschool computer classes and look forward to reliving that.
Tony
