I'm leaning toward the idea of offloading my Plus/4 as it's sat in the attic
for years and I've never got around to *doing* anything with it. :-(
It works, but some of the keys are a bit sluggish - are there any gotchas
involved in dismantling the keyboard in order to give contacts a clean? (I
just want to check I'm not going to be faced with tiny springs going every
which way if I unscrew the backplate :-)
Also, am I right in thinking that the tape unit was an optional extra? I don't
have one [1], but looking at the boxed plus/4 on ebay at the moment, it
doesn't seem to include one either in the standard package.
[1] I *did* have a broken one once, but it's either seriously buried or I
tossed it out long ago.
