This Acorn BBC Master 128 has bought from [https://www.ebay.co.uk/usr/capoates?_trksid=p2047675.m3561.l2559 capoates] via eBay auction for a total of £206 with 18 bids bidding to £191 + £15 P&P. For more pics, please check out [https://www.flickr.com/photos/34320897@N02/albums/72177720306941038 Acorn BBC Master 128 (92) Album]
Bought this a few years back as a project that never came to fruition and with great sadness, I’m letting her go!
Looks like it has a view sheet rom, but I don’t have any instructions for it, plus a Watford electronics ‘Adder’ rom, also, no instructions.
I think the CMOS battery needs replacing ( three AA batteries part of a pack) if you know these machines, you’ll know what that is, easy to do apparently.
The machine runs fine other than that.
I can’t answer any technical questions, anything outside of that, fire away!
I loaded up a couple of games and they worked fine (please note, machine doesn’t come with the games)
No international, UK ONLY.

This is a very rare working model - used, in excellent condition.
An Amstrad 386 PC combined with a sega mega drive. Powers up and works fine. This is an ultra rare pc/console, one of the first proper PC's available on the market in the early 1990's. I brought this from new and therefore it's only had one owner.
For the Sega Megadrive, slide the front hatch to transfer from the PC to the Sega Megadrive. When moving the shutter across the Amstrad PC part turns off and the Megadrive part powers up (and vice versa). Comes with the Sonic the Hedgehog cartridge and 2 other games cartridges (Davis Cup World Tour and Mega Games I that includes Super Hang-on, Italia '90 and Columns).
On the PC side, it seems to have lost it's software on the hard disk, but I have all the original 3.5” set up disks and manuals. I can navigate to the Setup and Bios and I'm sure with a bit of effort you can get it working (great for PC enthusiasts). Comes with 60 plus new and used 3.5" disks of various software/games/blanks.
* Comes with original monitor and 386 unit with built-in Sega Megadrive
* Power cable
* Monitor cable
* Original Amstrad Megadrive Mega PC control pad
* Original Amstrad analogue joystick AJ-5
* IBM compatiable mouse + spare IBM compatible mouse
* Original Amstrad keyboard (with plastic cover) in excellent condition
* 3 Sega Megadrive game cartridges
* 60+ 3.5” disks
* Original Amstrad setup disks
* All original manuals Plus MS DOS 5.0 and MS DOS 6.0 manuals.

My cousin, Gifty was planning to get rid of it, as its very slow for her and the family to use, but I was planning to buy it off from her, since I like very old computers and was planning to buy one for the living room for my parents to use or me using it while I spend time with my parents in the living room, instead she just give it to me as a present since we're family, including a huge 17" colour monitor. This computer has only 300MHz CPU, 64MB RAM, 40GB Hard drive containing Windows 2000 Professional without any soundcard drivers which I give the 40GB hard drive her to keep.
But I remove and replaced with a new X-Power ATX-400TD (400W) power supply, 512MB memory, 550MHz CPU, Maxtor 200GB hard drive containing a multi-boot Operating System facility, with Soundcard drivers and DVD / CD-RW Combo drive. I love this mini tower as it has 4 x 3.5" bays (for 2 hard drives & 2 floppy drives) & 3 x 5.25" bays and 3 x PCI slots.

While going through my computer hard drives, according to my one of my old college work from CoWc - PA1 & PA2 Documentation dated 20th January 1997, it was RM Nimbus PC-386/20 used in during Spreadsheets classes with RM Network Logon (RM Net LM 2.0) screen.

FINALLY!!! I own one of these beauties after I have spend £50 - £25 + £25 p&p. I always WANTED one of them, since when I started using one of these [https://cutt.ly/p8YbyLW RM Nimbus Computers] at the age of 9 - 1989, in my primary school. No schools or colleges that I've attended would even sell it to me, no matter how much I'm offering them to buy for.
I kept thinking about these computers, even good memories keep coming back to, reminding me even time, when I'm near at any computers. Especially, the adventure games that I've played are "The Lost Frog" & "Merlin's Castle" from [https://www.retrostic.com/roms/bbc-micro/adventures-i-the-lost-frog-merlin-s-castle-h-tsth-bootfile-ssd-17486 Adventures I], "[http://flaxcottage.com/Educational/software/BBCsoft/DragonEye/DragonEye_Download.zip Through the Dragon`s Eye]" as well "Pirate Gold" from [https://flaxcottage.com/Educational/software/Amateur/MathsStory2/MathsStory2_Download.zip Maths with a Story 2] after [https://www.betaarchive.com/forum/viewtopic.php?p=456434#p456434 finding out].
Even there some programs which I like them very interesting such as "Paintspa" which is a painting program, "Newsdesk" which is an editing program that allows you to set-up a page to print like a newspaper. I don't care if they say that is very old computer, but to me, its not just an old computer, its very special to me, and its one of these best memories that stuck in me rest of my life, I just can't forgot all about it. And it droves me very crazy and it mean a lot to me!

This Vintage [https://www.flickr.com/photos/34320897@N02/albums/72177720303108509 RM Nimbus PC-386/20] School Computer was purchased from Boston, United Kingdom via eBay Seller: [https://www.ebay.co.uk/usr/bcc-148?_trksid=p2047675.l2559 bcc-148] on 28 Nov, 2020 12:16:07 GMT for £160 out of 11 bids with £10.00 postage - Economy Delivery.
The BIOS screen indicates that it dates to 1992.
Was the first 'PC' that I came across when starting work in a science department at a school in 1993.
Has been stored for many years.
Was fully working when last used. It was bootable from the hard drive and as I remember had a DOS based menu to launch a number of DOS programs. Windows 3.0 was also installed.
Unfortunately it does not now want to boot. It starts up as expected and appears to look for a boot disk on the floppy drive. I do not have a setup disk or other boot floppy disks anymore so I get stuck at that point.
The BIOS battery is clearly dead, but is intact and not leaking.
1024KB RAM, size of hard drive unknown but probably 40MB.
Unusual in that it has the 20MHz CPU, instead of the usual 16MHz one, which I understand is quite rare.
Overall condition is good for year, although there is a little yellowing of the plastic and the top case cover is worn as shown in the photos, but I believe that it is fully functional, if you have the correct setup disk.
Base unit only, nothing else included.

This Vintage [https://www.flickr.com/photos/34320897@N02/albums/72177720303102261 RM Nimbus PC-386/20] School Computer was purchased from Swindon, United Kingdom via eBay Seller: [https://www.ebay.co.uk/usr/gronopa?_trksid=p2047675.l2559 gronopa] on 09 dec, 2020 15:17:17 GMT for Ł220 out of 23 bids with Ł20.25 postage - Economy Delivery.
Vintage RM Nimbus PC-386/20 School Computer. Condition is "For parts or not working". Dispatched with Royal Mail 2nd Class Large Letter.
Note computer description taken from archival auctions and found on the Internet
https://www.thenimbus.co.uk/about-the-rm-nimbus-museum/wanted
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/RM_Nimbus
The BIOS screen indicates that it dates to 1992.
I do not have a keyboard or a mouse to test it ... I used an old monitor from work and I can not check it more, so it sells as non-functional ... I also do not give any warranty and sells it in the same condition as you can see in the photos ... computer stored in a warm home for many years ... I invite you to bid. more photos I can share
Unusual in that it has the 20MHz CPU, instead of the usual 16MHz one, which I understand is quite rare…. 40MB Hard Drive

The Sega Master System was release in the mid-1980's, about the same time as Nintendo's system. It closely followed the released of the NES and had its own gimmicks to attract audiences, like 3-D glasses and a sports trackball to support its large library of sports games.
The Sega Master System was an 8-bit cartridge-based gaming platform and preceded the Sega Genesis. Although superior technically to the Nintendo Entertainment System, Sega lost the marketing war and the Sega Master System was left with few titles.

My childhood mystery is finally solved: What is the name of the blue maze game on the screen with interesting music?
If it won't for that [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Snail_Maze Snail Maze] game, I won't be achieving my goals in life, that was very first thing which it helped me to motivated myself with keeping on learning and working much harder using it as teaching aid when I was 9 (1989) in my primary school while I was having very learning difficulties / late developer (autism) and during that time I didn't know what's the properly name of that game - all I remember is a blue maze on the screen and I keep on calling it as Maze game. And my childhood memories / flashbacks coming back to me since after my 1st Sega Master System got damaged, couldn't get it out of my mind. That's why [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Snail_Maze Snail Maze] with 2 old school controllers means a lot to me!!

I have bought Mega CD with Sega Mega Drive with games for £33.88 + p&p = 45.88 from Ebay. Unfortunately, this Mega Drive malfunction as the picture comes up on the screen but no sound at all. So I decided to keep it as a "Display Model" to go with my computer museum in the future. Both are working perfectly with all leads and RF cable. There are also 5 Mega Drive games and 5 Mega CD games.

I've purchased this Sony Playstation 2 Serial: B3852037 off my brother, James's friend - Pete around Nov 2009, as he was planning to sell it, due to Disc Read Errors.
I was very keen to buy it for £15, feeling sorry for him and using it as my "experiment" with PS2 Disc Read Errors - "DRE", following [http://bit.ly/wZuhsX Tweak3D.net - How to Repair a Malfunctioning Playstation 2; Fix Disc Read Errors] web site and it worked perfectly!! Afterwards, I've decided to give it a very thoroughly cleaning from both the inside & out of PS2, giving it a very good polished, as it was very filthy, full of hair & dust, as well some cigarette ashes, as he smokes!
Using this 3rd PS2 at the moment with the existing setup in [https://www.facebook.com/photo/?fbid=124428475244&set=a.107643135244 Photo #30] except with Maxtor 200GB HDD and keeping the 2nd PS2 with Maxtor 300GB HDD in PS2 Network Adaptor in the attic as backup.

'''My personal Comments about my first home computer: Amstrad CPC 464'''<br>
<br>
Around 1986, my dad have spent £399.99 for it as he saw the Amstrad CPC 464 in "[https://cpcrulez.fr/f/94xx6 Amstrad Software & Peripheral Catalogue 1986]", as he decide to buy it from Curry's which is nearer for him and he asked my second brother, Daniel to pushed the trolley from Curry's to my house. He Originally, he has bought a first home computer for us (me and my two older brothers (- James & Daniel) for us to use it for entertainment. Originally, But it turns out in the end that he has bought it only for me only as no-one else in the family knows how to use a computerexcept me, as he knows that I like interesting bits e.g. books with pictures inside such as [https://www.google.com/search?client=firefox-b-d&q=Spot+the+Dog+books Spot the Dog books] - Where's Spot? by Eric Hill, [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Very_Hungry_Caterpillar The Very Hungry Caterpillar] by Eric Carle, [https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/0723247706?ref_=dbs_m_mng_rwt_calw_thcv_0&storeType=ebooks The Tale Of Peter Rabbit] by Beatrix Potter, [https://www.amazon.co.uk/Paddington-Takes-Bath-Michael-Bond/dp/0001945181 Paddington Takes a Bath] by Michael Bond, [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ladybird_Books#The_classic_Ladybird_book classic Ladybird books], Instruction Manuals, etc or playing around with electrical equipment. In those days, the Amstrad CPC 464's was one of the best computers when it first came out on the market. <br>
<br>
It was [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amstrad_CPC_464 Amstrad CPC 464 ] with a [https://www.cpcwiki.eu/index.php/CTM640/CTM644 colour monitor], [http://www.computinghistory.org.uk/det/38126/Amsoft-Joystick-Model-JY1/ Amsoft JY1 Joystick], [[Amstrad_LP-1_light_pen|Amstrad LP-1]], [[Amstrad_MP1/MP2_modulator|Amstrad MP-1]], [http://www.computinghistory.org.uk/det/13190/Cheetah-125-Joystick/ Cheetah 125+ joystickJoystick], [https://www.cpcwiki.eu/index.php/User_Manual manual], [https://www.cpcwiki.eu/index.php/Demonstration_tape_or_disc welcome tape ] - Spanish version and a box containing over £100 worth of games including [[Tubaruba]], [[3D Grand Prix]], [[Tank Command]]. I got very excited at first, jumping up and down for joy, full of excitement and I couldn't wait to set-up the computer and start playing every computer game that came with this computer. I always on the computer everyday non stop. Even since then, my learning abilities started to grow and grow, while I was hooked on playing on the computer, going to my near by library [https://www.flickr.com/photos/tetramesh/23460922259/in/photostream/ Cotleigh Road Library] to brought borrow and copying some of their Amstrad CPC games as they have the same computer as me. We were the first ones to buy this computer in my area, after James's friends come over and play on the computer with me, they started to copy copying my dad's idea and buy buying the same computer as us, except they couldn't afford to buy the colour version, which is too expensive for them to buy, instead they 've got the [[GT64/GT65]] green screen version.<br>
<br>
Unfortunately, around 15th July 1990, one of my brother's friend, Richard accidentally spilled a ice lolly onto the keyboard and then the computer made some noises. So, its looks like the life of Amstrad CPC 464 is over (damaged) and my dad threw the Amstrad CPC 464 away, after he had tried to take the computer to the same shop Curry's store where my dad have bought the Amstrad from, but they no longer sell or repair these computers anymore. During that time, Moley, my neighbour give me a comic that comes with the newspaper "The Sunday Times" called "The Funday Times" - No. 45 as she always gives the comic to me after she buy her newspaper.<br>
<br>
I was very upset because that was one of my favourite home computer out of the other Amstrad CPCs range and I become attached to it, as I love this computer so much, one of the reasons I love this computer so much is, while the game is loading from cassette, I read the game instructions / manuals or make myself and my family a small snack with a cup of tea or talking, laughing, pulling funny faces with my two brothers while my parents sit down on the settle behind us, watching us having a good time. I got used to and I was loving it every minute of it, using it as a good thing, while some people moan because it takes a long time to load a game from cassette e.g. 3D Grand Prix. In a matter of fact, I was very clever when it comes to on paper, except there is only one big problem about me - that is simply I cannot speak or pronounce any words at all, so I use this computer with games / programmes that come with the computer as a learning exercise / teaching aid for myself and it worked.<br>
Worst of all, my oldest brother, James gave a whole collection of computer games, accessories that come with the computer to his friend, Michael for free behind my back. I keep wishing that he didn't it, as I can't stop thinking about the good times I have with the CPC 464. Even now, I still remember the good times, a collection of computer games, how it help my life. I guess it stays in me (memories).<br>
<br>
By the way, I let you a little secret about why I smile a lot or why I always happy, well, because each time, when I smile, it reminds me back when I was six years, people at primary school including the headmaster calling me dumb, stupid and so on just because I cannot speak or say a few words, I only do a sign language of my own, fortunately, when I started using computers including Amstrad CPC 464 (thanks to my dad) and I started saying a few words, all the same people were speechless, and felt ashamed. The funny thing is, everybody started coming to me and asking me to help them how to use their computers. Even the neighbours knocked on my door, asking me to set up their electrical equipment.

While I was studying GNVQ Advanced in IT course at City Of Westminster College in Paddington Green, I really need a PC desperately for me to do my assignments / coursework at college. So, my dad and myself went to [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jt9uBQdVSME PC World] at Staples Corner, looking around about an hour, searching for a suitable computer, but as soon I saw Packard Bell 9021XE PC, I got immediately very excited because of the Media Select Control Pad, radio card and he planned remote control. My dad wanted to buy a Hewlett Packard Computer Compaq Presario PC just because of the brand name and Kamilla (the sales assistance) saying its the best and my dad just agree with her, which it has tiny Easy Access buttons (Media control system) built onto the top of the Desktop case as shown in [https://ia902501.us.archive.org/32/items/pc-world-booklet-april-1997/PC%20World%20Booklet%20April%201997%20-%20Page_03.jpg PC World Booklet - April 1997] but I said 'No!' as it cost I hated tiny Media control system built onto the top of the case so much, no over £1,000 free software, no 5 year computer insurance and costing £500 more than the computer I was planning to buy after fully studying while waiting for the right time to tell my dad for buying a PC and keeping a copy of previous [https://archive.org/details/packard-bell-booklet-1996-page-07 Packard Bell Booklet - October 1996] the whole time as a souvenir - Packard Bell 9021 XE ([http://on.fb.me/LFqRfM Photo 4]) which is similar to [http://pbclubpbplanet.pwcsite.cominfo/wiki/index.php/Platinum_Supreme_1680 Platinum Supreme 1680] except without 2 USB ports, using UK [https://archive.org/details/master-cd-english-6708440101 Packard Bell Master CD English Ref No: 6708440101] & [https://archive.org/details/packard-bell-boot-floppy-uk-v-2.15 Packard Bell BOOT FLOPPY UK V 2.15 For MASTER CD & W 95 Disk 1 Ref No: 6708810101] from [https://archive.org/details/PBEnvelope Packard Bell Software envelope] with [https://ia802309.us.archive.org/6/items/PBHOUSE/PBHOUSE.BMP Packard Bell house] set as default background wallpaper.

I loved that PC so much, and finally my dad gave up the argument and he bought Packard Bell 9021XE - same price as shown in [https://ia802501.us.archive.org/32/items/pc-world-booklet-april-1997/PC%20World%20Booklet%20April%201997%20-%20Page_02.jpg PC World Booklet - April 1997] which it cost £3,000 in total including the 5 year insurance and lot of free software while I've grabbed the last copy of [https://archive.org/details/pc-world-booklet-april-1997 PC World Booklet - April 1997] before leaving the store. I've paid my dad back the whole £3,000 back bit by bit, because I feel very bad after I realised how much money that he has spend on me. Through out the course, I have used this new computer, experiencing the new computer as possible such as opening the computer case, finding out which slots are free, how much RAM can this computer take, and so on.
This model is top of the range with a state-of-the-art Intel Pentium P200 Processor and 32MB of memory capacity to provide you with the ultimate multimedia experience.
