Getting ready for our boy's birthday party. Maybe later I'll bring down my ZX Spectrum and they can all enjoy the games that I used to play with my friends!*
*Will I f**k! They'll hate it, it's Fortnite and Minecraft all the way baby!

In WHTG SmithsJones buying Amiga Format Addict like it's some sort of alternate 1993.
I asked the newsagent where my coverdisk was and she tried to sell me an offer on a giant bar of Dairy Milk.

We all went to see Tron Ares. The kids took their Tron toys (causing the 8yr-old to squeal with excitement when it appeared in the film) and we all had a great time!

I tried to fix this A600. I solved the issue of the video output missing green but when it came to fixing the poor audio the machine died! A new CIA, Paula and some traces repaired later we are up and running.
Big shout out to amigaspirit.com and chums who undid my damage.

The three +2s belong to youtube.com/@retromarkyrm . The +2 below is mine and works fine after adding some extra capacitors to the tape deck to reduce background noise.
To do: new tape deck belts, replace caps to improve video output and correct a few factory errors on the PCB.

The top machine is in the best condition only requiring new tape deck belts and a clean-up.
The middle machine needs new belts and a voltage regulator.
The bottom machine is missing a CPU and has donated its voltage regulator to the middle machine.
