Does anyone know the life expectancy of a SAM keyboard membrane? Old Spectrums start malfunctioning if their membranes deteriorate, and I wondered how SAM's compared with them.
Other than the membrane, what other part's failure would herald the end of SAMs working life? I've got one well-used SAM, a hardly touched reserve SAM and a new keyboard unit in its original packing. I hope they don't all expire at the same time. If they do, I'll have to get to grips with SimCoupe, I suppose, but I still prefer to use an original SAM occasionally. Phil Glover.
