   I was pretty disappointed to see that the KBD is not real, but then again at   
   that size I guess it would have less usable that even a Spectrum 8-)   
      
      
   It would be good if it was possible to created the equivalent of multicart   
   images for it. 8-)   
      
      
   I'm thinking about getting an Ultimate 64 board instead! 8-)
