I'll think about it. Meanwhile you can find plenty of ZXes, still this side of the Atlantic, I'm afraid. But I'm pretty sure that the guys at AOC can arrange something for you, me included.

Several of the items I purchased the last couple weeks have been bouncing around in USPS on their way here... not counting those that are STILL in the system, bouncing around nonsensically.
For example, the following item (see screenshot) originated in Virginia, moved to Maryland, almost made it to me when it reached Detroit, then left Michigan to be sent off to Illinois.
And several other items are seeing the same confusion.

I'm a Tron sucker, saw it in Canada...Totally loved it...I've said before that all the malls there at the time had Vic20's in and had lines Like Access Project Tron (can't remember the typed line from the film at this sec) followed by Syntax Error
I'm a film fan as well, sci fi action and comic stuff does my fix.
Never seen a film bar 3 secs of Finding Nemo or the like in 3D, was told it gave headaches. Would be nice to have one of the TV's to see it before they are dropped as its less of a supported feature I'm told.Graham likes this. -
My wife and I are actually going to be watching the 3D release of Wizard of Oz this evening. Been long enough since we last watched it that I've been humming "If I only had a ..." all week.
Such a beautiful film, and the 3D translation is mind-blowing, Paul. Absolutely stunning. Even the black-and-white segment!
But you're right that some people do experience headaches. Since this was in the days when I had disposable income, I went with a high-end Samsung 3D plasma and paired 3D lenses and only had one person in the years since complain of a headache, and they took a brief break and were fine for the remainder of the film (Maleficent, another fave of mine for 3D). Some people will be more sensitive than others, for sure.
I really thought and would've loved to see 3D take off. VR is intriguing but priced beyond my interest's limits. And I don't have free space to really enjoy VR anyhow. Closest I came was with the Google glasses gadget that you band your cell phone into. Now THAT gave me headaches, and, again, this was a top-end Samsung phone with the highest available resolution. So, VR doesn't seem to be there yet for me.
But beginning with those 3D glasses in school, and staring at that poster... or the ViewMaster slideshows, I have loved 3D and holography. Will I live to see holography become the new VR? I'd like to think so because it'll be amazing. IMAX theaters are a bland foregleam of what I imagine possible once tech reaches the capabilities demanded by holography.
As long as it doesn't give me a headache, of course.

RE: TRON: Uprising
I don't know if the new Disney+ network is carrying the series, but watching the 19 episodes in 4-7-min bites is hardcore. I have the episodes in 720p, but they are a gig per episode, too, so approximately 21-22 gigs of visual and plotline delight...
Lance Henriksen chews up his scenes as a baddie, of course. Mandy Moore, Elijah Wood, and Bruce Boxleitner all lent their talents to the series, and even Olivia Wilde makes an appearance as Quorra. And who can miss Tricia Helfer as the voice of the Grid itself.

It should load fine on an XL/XE. Apart from the following snip from the Reference Card, I'm not sure what might be happening there apart from the copy-protection failing somehow...?

Hi, Klyde, it's been an age since I got up to speed with "What's New Pussycat" and I'd temporarily forgotten about your Speccy - how have you got on with a replacement keyboard membrane? Do you want me to order you one?
Let me know how you are doing and I hope you and Isabelle have had a decent vacation and the weather has improved... that photo you sent of the scene out of your Elancourt window made me suddenly think you had dropped in on us here in HULL(!)
