Today I received my Canadian Plus /4 in.
Again, people who sell stuff on E-bay should take 5 minutes and clean the items they are selling. It's only common curtsy,but no one wants to clean the stuff they are selling. Needless to say, this Plus /4 was filthy. It also had seen better days and obviously it had been repaired at one time. It also apears to have had it's keyboard replaced with a UK keyboard. I could be wrong though. Maybe, unlike the Amiga, they just had one keyboard and the "£" key is present on all the keyboards. I have some work set out in front of me. I will take it to work and clean it there.
The label is falling off. Unlike the earlier Commodore labels like on the VIC -20 and C64, this label is not metal, but just a vinyl sticker. As a result of age and cheap glue, it is bulging, and is letting go on one side.
You can see from the very bad photo above that the Amiga 600 is actually a few inches bigger all around. I did not get a power supply, or cables with this Auction, but I did pick up a brand new Plus/4 in another Auction and a spare power supply, so within the next week I can test this baby to see if it actually works. Hopefully by then, I will have my good camera back.

Now for today's RANDOM Photo:
