People have seen far worse in computer clean ups! One guy found a rat skeleton in his 386 PC

Neil79 · 03 December 2015, 16:38

Tape Deck - Fixed
Keyboard Membrane - Fixed
Carts - Will need a Contact Cleaner as two out of three are faulty

You know, you should place *NOT WORK SAFE* somewhere there - naked computers everywhere?!

Good find...

Too bad my wife vetoed any hardware purchases until we get bigger house.

heh, the awesome speedlock screen !!! I dumped all their flavors up to version 7

And yes, compared to many other computers, the CPC was tank built ! Made to last, you really need something wrong like a nasty short-circuit to have it dying

For the 464+, it's a bit more complicated......

More arrivals:

Jimmy White has the Poster + Chalk, Mercenary III has all 6 Briefing cards (opened), Epic has the 3D Poster + 3D Glasses, Team Suzuki has the Trainer Disk!

Rise of the Robots are the A600 + A1200 versions, Legend weighs a ton due to thick manuals it contains!!

I picked up a holder/clip for my bluetooth SNES controller so it fits perfect on my phone...

Again the d-pad and buttons on this pad are amazing - so it's perfect for emulation when I'm on a train etc.

I also got a plush Lemming for my birthday the other day...

My favourite Amiga flight sim arrived here today in very good condition for just €3.27.

Have a A1200 keyboard on the way along with an Amiga600HD with CF. Happy days

Nobby_UK · 11 December 2015, 01:19

Whats with the lights nobby?

Nobby_UK · 12 December 2015, 18:49

'TenLeftFingers' asked about the LED strip (Xmas lights - Sort of)

The others (+ Power Banks + Torches) I have been collecting ---
since we had a power cut (underground cables went BANG !).

TenLeftFingers · 13 December 2015, 02:36

Very nice Nobby UK. I have mine running under the window sill so they're hidden until turned on but I've been wanting to expand my operation

Might try something like that.

Power cut just your place, or your Town?
