Amstrad ZX Spectrum +2A
Sinclair ZX · 1987
The +3 board with the disc drive replaced by a tape deck, in the +2's black case. That means it carries the +3's revised ROM and its compatibility problems without the drive that justified them, which is why it is the least loved Spectrum. Easily confused with the +2 and worth telling apart: the black case and the +2A badge are the tell.
