I wonder what these are for?

I received a package this morning. This is part of what was inside it. I wonder, what could it be?

I don't know but I suppose we could disc-uss it... :D

I have no idea, perhaps they are very large scale and integrated somewhat ;)

(sorry about nicking the picture from another forum, when I buy fish'n'chips they are wrapped in either plan white paper, or newspaper...)

Because you have become bored of making these:

I am not sure what that is above, is:
  • 1. A data table held on disk
    2. A spreadsheet table
    3. A table of contents
    4. A coffee table
Ahem

On a slightly more serious note, does anyone have access to an Issue 5 PCB? If so can they tell me what the resistor value is. I currently have conflicting evidence of 22K or 2K2 from the 'data' tables available on line as well as the circuit diagram, so please do not quote from what you find online or in a book or the service manual, I've already done that. It has to be from the PCB itself.

My Iss. 5 has 'undreds and fousands of resistors. Care to pick one?

I want one. Especially if someone can laser-engrave it with 'Sinclair QL'

Ah. Ann just saw me type that. She says "no".

I can say with full clarity, that the resistor value is ohms :P
Also that R47 is 2.2K, R96 is 2.2k, do you want any other random resistors that have a colour code starting red, red ? :lol:
