I agree - rework or making a copy using the source to make another comercial product would infringe the legality.

But we see a lot of books on disassembly of the spectrum roms for instance - I presume these must have been given legal authority to publish?

I think the shielding is to protect external devices from the RF radiation produced by the Q68 - as it's a fast switching digital device

I am sure it will work just fine outside a case, but it is probably not playing nice with the environment

can you still get aquadag paint, would that work as an RF shield?

If I recall - there is a 512K flash and 512K ram card for slot 0 that contains OZ 4.7 - the latest OS release for the Z88 - and highly recommended.
