The serial number is missing from my +2. |
|
|
|
The Spectrum brand was bought by Amstrad in 1986
and the Spectrum +2 was produced in a grey case
similar to that of Amstrad's own computer. |
|
The Plus 2 had full-travel keys and a built-in
cassette recorder, called a Datacorder. Sadly, the
datacorder does not have an auto-stop or a tape
counter. There are two joystick ports, identical
in appearance to the standard Atari ones on most
computers. However, specially adapted joysticks
are still necessary. |
|
Most of the keywords were no longer displayed
on the keys. |
|
An RGB socket allows the use of an AV or SCART
connector for a better TV picture or connection
to a monitor and there is a separate sound out socket.
There is also a connection marked RS232 / MIDI and
the KEYPAD connection from the original Spectrum
+. |
|
The start-up options no longer include Tape Tester. |
