Hi Guys
Sitting here doing the overlays for the 8/e silk screen run.
I had a thought. Including all makes of computer old and new.
What about a front panel with lights and switches for systems
that never had one and could have done with one?
Which computer would you nominate?
I'm not about to do anything about it.
But the answers should be interesting
Don't know if you're aware, but this
may be interesting and relevant:

A real panel (albeit very basic) for an emulated machine.
A real panel for Hercules would be a very interesting prospect. You
could build a panel for a machine which never even existed, which only
exists in emulated form: the System/380:

If anyone does build one, and it's any good, I'll buy seven!
