Where in the North West? I will be in Preston over Christmas, if you live anywhere near there?

TurboR is lovely - but - you need a modern TV set, with either RGB or SVHS inputs (it is a NTSC unit) and a 110v adaptor - Maplin supply those.

All good fun

If you got a machine UKD i can maybe help you out with some software on floppy disk - although there is plenty that you can download online. A supply of 720k disks might be hard to find though!

Bas has some usefull stuff, I have bought things from him he is fast and reliable. I would strongly recomend him

Well thanks you guys - this is looking good - two quick questions if you don't mind:-
1> Is a demo of the Compass assembler available - I would like to give it try before buying?

2> Anyone reading this from the UK - remember MSX Computing and MSX User magazines - Back in the Early days of MSX 1 machines - I had program published in one of them (can't remember which) - it was a 64 characters per line utility written in 100% z80 assembler - I was well proud when they published it - I would love to be able to see it once again after all these years - but have never been able to track it down.

Once again thanks for your help.

Lots of old TVs support the RGB output of turboRs. My old Sony 14" (1988!) with a SCART input connector has no problem displaying turboR RGB signals.

In the UK people dont tend to change there TV sets that often, my patrents still use a non-SCART TV set!!

1988 is modern!
