The Sinclair QL Forum

Thank you all for your answers. It is clear now.
I had time to install the new membrane, without further cleaning (I will do it later).
The new screws from Derek fit perfectly, thanks again Derek :)

The orange LED light on and I search for a display. In automatic search, my TV found a good ...

Hi,
I am Patrick from Clermont-Ferrand in France.
I just got today a shiny Sinclair QL and I registered to find more information about it.
After some readings, I think that it is safe to switch it on.
I will just check the PSU before.
A nice addition to my collection .
