Attic rummage find...

Post by Sparrowhawk »

It's always good to have a little rummage in the deepest, darkest depths of the attic! I stumbled across a plastic bag in which were my Multiface 128 (in my memory it was a 1, so 128 is a bonus), and also a Multiface 2 (I used to have a CPC, still tempted to get another on eBay...) :)

I was actually looking for an old 17" VGA monitor and cable I know I have somewhere - it is still hiding from me though.

Interesting insight into the state of your attic that you found the tiny bits and missed the chunky ones :)

(No worries, mine is similar...)

Similar story here when I was looking for an old 15 inch monitor (ex vanpeebles I think?) for my Q68 recently. Found all sorts of forgotten things before I found the monitor.

As tofro said, interesting insight into attic states... :lol:

Has stereo speakers and 3.5mm jack input for audio from Q68. So I don't need separate speakers.
