My dad upgraded our ZX81 to this a Video Genie

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Video_Genie

IIRC he bought a 1MB (yes 1 megabyte) upgrade that came in a box that was bigger the unit it self and cost £250.

What I remember was if the fridge motor kick in while you where loading it killed what you where doing and you had to start again.
