On the plus side I managed to get the keyboard ribbon working when it was this long!

Is it possible / realistic to replace the connector on a Memopak? It has total broken!

The case itself will be pretty good once cleaned up. Might end up as a Spand case…
As far as I can remember the Memotech case only fitted around the "classic" spands not the plus versions.

PRANL being the Loob word for print, but then I think you already knew that. :lol:

Not bought one in a while. A very nice issue three. All keys work and it loads software so probably all ok.

It even came with a couple of games I didn’t have. Bonus!
