Ah damn, that's how I burned my last 6128 Plus. I had so many add-ons on it that I was trying to power it from my back-yard reactor. When I told it to run Monkey Island it formed a column of light upwards to the sky which then fell in the surrounding area. All that remains is, amazingly so, the Z80A, in mint condition.

I knew it!  :P


The picture is so impressive that I had to post it here, along with some joke  8)


By the way, the Astronomy Picture of the Day site (http://apod.nasa.gov/apod/archivepix.html) contains thousands of wonderful pictures. There are some nice sunsets at cape Sounion (http://apod.nasa.gov/apod/ap091223.html).


Next time you try to create an AlanSugarStein monster, touch somethimng metallic to get rid of the static current, hehehee  :laugh:

Ah... Sounion... Given its history and significance it's really quite magical. What a coincidence, I hadn't been there in several years, but I ran off work last friday and drove down there for a business meeting :)

Did you know that, among others, Lord Byron's signature is engraved on the columns?

Other than that, the archive is fantastic. It's a shame they don't have something as basic as an RSS feed to pull new images automatically... :(
