Re: The QL - Love it or hate it

Out of interest how much was the 68000 vs 68008?
Would there have to be other parts of the design changed too, i.e. more expensive type RAM?

Re: The QL - Love it or hate it

Your CONS sum up everything I would have posted, the reason why I voted 'hated'.
A wasted opportunity really.

Re: Keyboard issue - Commando

A long shot do you have another keyboard/membrane to try?

I wonder if it is a problem with that or a iss 6 problem? I remember going from a Amiga 500 to a 1200 and the big C skimpt on the design and polling was not possible on some rows/sectors of the keyboard.

Re: Rubbing Alcohol or Isopropyl

Always get 99% IPA, some rubbing alcohol starts at 70 % (like hand sanitizer) which means awful gel ingredients and the like.
Methylated spirits have ketones in the mix with it too.
