A quick, first look at this heavily customised TS1000 in a ZX81 case ... with TS1000 TV plug cutout ... ? First time I've seen this. Were ZX81s initially exported to the US before Timex Sinclair took over with the TS1000?

The keyboard looks quite well made for a home effort, and the 16KB expansion box is equally well-made. The original owner sure did put a lot of love and care into their little 2KB machine. I wish I had more information about them.

Not sure if it works yet, and I'm not sure what the 4-pin socket on the expansion board is for.

{Sorry, no 4K version - didn't realise I'd set my phone to HD}
