I run a 1983 BBC B Micro. It is 8 bit with 32k of ram. It boots in 1 sec flat I use it to connect to bbs sites via telnet I have a serial to usb converter to connect to my win 10 PC. I use a hayes simulator(BBS
SERVER) on the PC to connect to the internet

the US Retroclinc refurbs them and will post one to you Most old bbc bs pop there psu supply smoothing capacitors when you turn them on Its
called the BBC magic smoke but they still work You will need a 100v to
