That wouldn't be a SEGA SC-3000 or SC-3000H would it?
I'm very keen on it - especially the floppy interface thingimy. I'm
collecting old 8-bit machines so that they don't just vanish off into

of boxes - off hand they consist of;
1/2 a ZX80 (not currently functional - no CPU, RF modulator or top
cover)
3 x ZX81 (1 non-functional, 1 with blown ULA, 1 fully functional)

1 x Atari 2600 console with carts
1 x CBM Vic20 with C2N Cassette
1 x CBM C64 with 1541 Floppy drive
1 x CBM C64C with 1541II Floppy drive
1 x CBM Amiga 500
1 x pair Commodore paddles
1 x Apple //e with 2 floppy, 80col Serial, Parallel interfaces

A few machines may be missing from this list.
