Re: Q68 Emulate original QL Keyboard

The hardware reset by magic word access to $1C024 resets both the CPU and all peripherals except the CP2200. I am curious whether this does preserve the 68000 registers or not.

Re: Possible QL Is 40 event, UK

There has been a resurgence of interest in the QL in recent years - QL Forum has over 1,000 members now, and the Sinclair QL For Everyone group on Facebook has 1.6K members.

Re: White screen problem

Hope...
