Hi, I have a Laser 3000 (Same thing as the Dick Smith Cat) with no cards. I would really like to have some peripheral cards for it. Most urgently wanted is a floppy interface card, then Z80 or Serial card would be nice to have. I realize the most likely place to find any of these is...

Hi, I have a Zenith MasterSport 386SX but no PSU. The machine works (HD's dead) when I put 7.2V on the battery terminals so that's great, but I'd obviously like a PSU for it. It has an 8 pin din power connector that says 11V. I can't find a user guide, service manual or any technical...
