| Re: I love the Plussy!
I've recently purchased my first Plus4 on Ebay. £47.55 (inc discounted p&p) wasn't too bad.
The only thing stopping me from buying one before was the keyboard, which I have more trouble with. I prefer the C16's breadbin design with it's easier C64'ish style keyboard, but thought what the hell I needed the extra memory and a spare machine anyway.
You can find the ebay link and photos of my setup here.

There seems to be no office suite with it going by the boot screen, but that doesn't matter to me. I kinda prefer it this way.
A few days later after it arrived though sods law arrived on my doorstep. My 1541II drive conked out. Until it is fixed I am again limited by choice. Only a few wonderful plussy games and no demos for me for a little while anyway
