ZX SPECTRUM +2A/+3 Powerful Mega setup - Episode #4
Welcome to this fourth episode, where we will connect a K-mouse Turbo XL interface and an USB mouse with PS/2 compatible protocolset. We will also set up the Workbench 3e from Octocom.
This series is for ZX Spectrum 2A/ 3 users. We will upgrade a ZX Spectrum 2A to a very powerful retro computer with 7 modern operating systems and several different storage devices. If you have a 3 you can get the same results.
The 3 has two more 16 KB ROMs, physically implemented as two 32 KB chips. One is the home to the second part of the reorganised 128 ROM and the other hosts the 3’s disk operating system. This is a modified version of Amstrad’s AMDOS, called 3DOS. To facilitate the new ROMs and CP/M, the bank-switching was further improved, allowing the ROM to be paged out for another 16 KB of RAM.
The 3 is the only ZX Spectrum model that is capable of running the CP/M operating system without additional hardware. Also featured is an interface port for a printer (standard 8-bit Centronics Interface), an interface port for a second disk drive, an auxiliary port and two joystick ports (All these features are also available on the 2A).
The computer will end up having these features:

- IDEDOS
