Hello to everyone! 
Well, where do I start?
I discovered computers while at secondary school. At school they had BBC model B Micros. At home, me and my sister got a Sinclair ZX Spectrum for Christmas
The first time I saw a Memotech computer in real life, was when I got a MTX on loan from a friend when I was at secondary school. I liked it so much, I bought Ian Sinclair's MTX book (as my friend did not have a manual). It was different from the ZX Spectrum that I had. Which was different from the Acorn BBC B's at school. I loved it, but being at school it was too expensive for me
.Once I discovered eBay some years ago, plus discovering how much information there is on the internet (although not that much MTX info at the time), I decided it was time to add some MTX's to join my existing computers.
At the time I had Sinclair ZX Spectrum's, ZX81's, Acorn BBC B's, Acorn BBC Master's, Atari STFM's & STE's, one Atari Falcon, and one of each Psion Series 3, 3a, 3c and 5mx. Plus three PC's.
I had originally intended on getting only two or maybe three MTX's so that I had at least two working ones (unless they were found to have faults that could be fixed).
But I found problems:-
They were not very common, so were hard to buy...
The first one I bought did not have a PSU or manual, and at the time, there was no schematic that I could find on-line.
The next two were bought because they had either a PSU or a manual, but I now had three MTX's, only one of which worked!
So I kept my eyes open...
The last one was bought because it came with both a RS232 board and a disk drive.
And that's the story of how it started
Now I am knee deep in this MTX hobby
