Hi Dave,
Your phase "QLing on a tumble dryer" would make a great book title ...

I have a US QL, therefore I have a US QL PSU ;) Though I am capable of

It's wonderful that you offer that. I'm in Texas, USA and I'm told by RWAP
that shipping a QL from England is over 50 ukp. I couldn't ask you to do

ok with you, I'd rather not send the power supply. :-(

I know they redesigned the port area for the serial ports and joystick

if there are any other differences between the boards... I'll take this one
out and

Luckily I have the JS+TK2 Q-Emulator 1.0 for Mac to test on - it behaves

Hi Dave,
Are you sure it has a vertical resolution of 256? Maybe the video ULA
has been replaced with a UK one.
