Re: QL Power Cable

I once had a 8V sealed lead acid battery. I forget the Ah rating, but it was around 6 to 8Ah. Great for powering all things that ran on 8 to 9V DC supplies out of range of the mains supply.

Most of the software that I bought for my Atari ST back in the day came in one of the following:- A cardboard box, some times with a moulded thermoplastic insert/tray, A plastic box a bit like a box that prerecorded film/tv show VHS video tapes came in, A CD/DVD like "jewel" case with no i...

Re: Strange

Forum status:
On work iPhone 4S - okay :D
On Firefox (Linux OS) - okay :D
So no strange black boxes for me :mrgreen:

I do get the green flash with a white tick in the bottom left corner though.

The only forum fault that I have come across is detailed here.
