not much to add to this thread, except I fondly remember a cousin & a friend both owning plus/4's.. great memories of playing Treasure Island and Icicle Works on their machines. In fact I always preferred the Plus/4 version of Icicle works (compared to the c64) due to the music.. To me it was better somehow.

Time to fire up YAPE again.

Sorry for the OT, but I literally have Ghost'nGoblins running on my A500 right now and its one of the few games where I miss the C64 Sid-Music.

[QUOTE=Retrofan;1313986I cleaned the keyboard board with something like "Brasso" for metals, and then I cleaned it very well with IPA. I also applied IPA to the key's rubber contacts and I wiped out the excess with some cotton tips.[/QUOTE]

That doesn't sound like a good idea since you're dissolving what makes the contacts work. Clean it with something dry instead that doesn't apply too much wear on the contacts.
