Correct me if I am wrong, but wasn't the ZX81 a UK machine? I was under
the understanding that it was sold in North America as the TS1000
(Timex/Sinclair). I'm pretty sure the ZX81 was made in the UK (at least
that's what mine says on the case).
Of course I'm not sure if it was made in the UK for a North American market...
