Some Sinclair QL repair work. The QL was our #computer_of_the_month back in February. At the time, we concluded that we had one fully working QL and one in need of a new keyboard membrane. Getting back to them recently after procuring a new keyboard membrane, we found, rather unsurprisingly, that the previously working QL now had a broken membrane too, bringing us right back down to one working QL yet again, but at least the keyboard on this one should be good for the foreseeable future.
We also begun the tedious process of replacing the tiny piece of felt on each of our 100 or so microdrive cartridges. Many of them would still fail to load properly but we managed to get a couple of games up and running, among them this surprisingly competent chess game.
