It looked brand new as if it had never been out of it's box. I expanded the BBC B with a ZIF Socket, a Watford Electronics Sideways ROM/RAM Board, I also tried the Aries B32 shadow RAM board and the Aries B20 ROM expansion board.

The BBC B+ I now have started life belonging to my work, I and my collegues persuaded the company that their money would be better spent on the BBC B+ than an IBM XT. It was subsequently upgraded to a BBC B+128 with a 64K RAM expansion board that fitted down the right hand side of the motherboard, a ROM expansion board from Advanced Technology Product Ltd (ATPL) and a ZIF socket. It also had the 6502 and Z80 second processors. Computer Concepts "Inter" series software and a CAD package from Technomatic, Technocad was installed to cover all our needs.. It was a dream to use compared to the IBM offering..
