Hi.
Yes, you mention something here, Memotech can have a special smell when they are not in use for longer time, could be dust "cooking" inside the Electronics ?
Currently I have two Memotech MTX 512's working, and 2-3 more in Parts, since lack of time, no time to try to fix them, I bet at least one more could be fixed.
One of my current working MTX 512's have DANISH rom, and danish keyboard layout, actually for a 1980's computer it was quite rare that they supported e.g Danish Keyboard. I never saw Commodore 64, Amstrad or Spectrums with Danish Keyboard, but Memotech supported that. I think it gave Memotech a bit of advantage, but not enought to survive in the 80's. Funny enough in Denmark, every computer magazine said the Memotech was a very good computer, but I think it was a bit to expensive at the time and also lack of populary software titles and software house support. We never saw Winter/Summer games for Memotech. And only a few companies supported the System with software and games.
If you did not already get one, you should get Andy Key's Rememorizer
http://www.nyangau.org/rememorizer/rememorizer.htm then you can save your basic type-in-programs
and play games from a SD card.
If you only want to play games you could get the Megrom extension

at my homepage you can also download some wave files and load them using the ear socket at the Memotech you will find them here:

there are also new converted games never published in the 80's for the Memotech, mainly titles from MSX and ColecoVision.
And of cause a Merry Christmas to you and every body else
or two.
