I remember looking at the Dick Smith S80 when I was a kid, nver had one but my first IBM PC clone was a Dick Smith Challenger computer that had 2 floppy drives, no hard drive only 128K on board and the rest to get me to 640K was on a full length card that only had tinned edge connectors that would always loose contact and give you out of memory errors. I wish I kept it.
I have some of the ROMs and other chips from a kit for a Dick Smith S80 and spent some time trying to find one, but they are rare. I've got myself my first Microbee in the post heading over to me and last time I touched one was in year 9 in high school which was a while so I'll be reading any questions you ask with interest as I probably want to know the answer too.
