Hey,

So I want to use my Plus/4 but I don’t want to kill it. I’ve read/heard that the Plus/4 will eventually off itself, the TED will die(?) So I’m scared to use the damn thing.

I got a bunch of tapes I want to play, but I don’t want to damage the thing. What’s the approach to ensure I don’t cook the TED from just using it?

PS: Not power supply related. I have a Ray Carlsen multi PSU.

    Oh darn, no updates; you’re right. I might send a message.

    Thanks –Henry

      Good luck! I had a plussy growing up and enjoyed the faster disk drive, the advanced BASIC (compared to the VIC-20 and 64) and the machine code monitor/simple assembler it had built in. Nowadays there are quite a few good games too (homebrews and bootleg ports) but back then we mostly had to make do with C16 games (16K…).
