the 2nd stretch goal is very close and we need your support to achieve it.

For a future revision, a bit more Oric/Atmos perhaps?  :).

Geee... I haven't been paying attention for the last few years.... And this happens, nice work  :D


I have a question relating to the CPC cover tape.


Obviously, and unfortunately, I missed the kickstarter. But is the Tape included if I purchase the 2019 edition now?


Will be ordering either way, but I can't see it noted on the ordering site.


Cheers,
Rob
