BBC newbie late to the party

Post by evansma »

Hello,

Just got my first BBC micro after all these years. I never got to use one back in the day as we only had 1 computer for the whole school.
I've fixed a few issues with it, replaced the power supply capacitors and purchased a Gotek drive.
Thanks to this forum I've managed to turn the volume down so it doesn't wake the house up when I turn it on.

Looking forward to exploring what I've missed and browsing the forums.
