G'day Jason. You're right, this isn't the one from Victoria - that bloke still hasn't replied to me...! Perhaps he's xx( ??

This ED came from the Netherlands. Cost me a fair whack in freight but the guy did an awesome job of packaging and it only took a week or so to arrive. I think the European ED's are the only ones with the silk screening.

It has the model number M0001D and has a 220-240v PSU. Made in Ireland but no copyright date anywhere. Has some corrosion on the battery terminals (as you'd probably expect). Also has a small number engraved right at the bottom on one side - evidence of it's "Educational" roots, which personally I think is nice and "authentic" so that doesn't bother me.

Your two ED's are the beige 512k only identifiable by the M0001ED model number and the Platinum 512k with the same front but minus the silk screening - is that right? The one in Victoria was a Platinum 512k M0001ED like yours. Still fuming that he won't get back to me and sell it to me!

Need to get myself a Platinum ED like yours, a Performa 275 and a Macintosh Plus ED and I'll complete my collection... Then what will I do!?!?!
