RandomTech: Echo 500 Electronic Organ Watch

I'm fascinated by random tech, always have been.  It's the sort of odd electronic things that you get in those tacky shops on holiday that have always intrigued me.   I figured, as I have this blog now, I could actually review some of them.

So, first up - the Echo 500 Electronic Organ Watch.  

Trying out Twitterfeed

I've decided to try out Twitterfeed to auto-tweet about these blog posts.  So this is kind of a test, I suppose.

First of all, not really a hack, just a repair job.  

A friend had a ZX Spectrum which had a badly corroded circuit board, and the keyboard membrane had fallen apart. Aesthetically it looked good though.  I had a working Speccy, but it was all cracked and beat up, so basically I did a case-transfusion to make one good, working one. 

My beaten up, but still working old Spectrum
