|  Hello everybody!
Just fund out about all these fabulous Plus/4 sites! I think I didn't kno wabout them before because I never focused on the machine that much 
Lando, excellent site you have here. Keep up the great work!
By the way, I'll be needing some help with the Plussy, since I just acquired one ;))) First concerns are:
- Power Supply: Will my 128 PSU work?
- Joysticks: Just saw that brill adapter pic you posted below Lando, know where to get some?
- Transfer woes: how to send stuff to the Plus? I'll be reading docs about this anyway. I suppose the best way is to use a X1541 cable.
Oh well, I'll be sticking around, so get used to me

| Kind of...
Helpful for the plus/4 side of things, in case a problem arises. However I still need the pinout for the C128 power supply connector. I wonder where the hell would it be? An dI wonder why the manual ahs all the pinouts except that one? ;P

Hey mate,
No, I don't live in the UK, but perhaps some sort of deal can be arranged with the seller, he might not mind an overseas order?
About the power supply, I knew about that modification, but I don't have a C64 PSU nor a square plug. If only I could find a pinout for the C128 PSU, I'd knew if I can use it or not! From the specs on the back of the PSU, I think it should work, but I Don't want to risk it.
I'll have to get an X1541 then... Also I saw a page which had a SID soundcard. That's very neat, I might give it a try

 | Hi Akira,
Do you live in the UK?
I know of a guy who has a C64 power supply. He fitted his square plug to it after his +4 one went down.
Dont know about 128 as I have the 128D which is a 3pin kettle lead (UK).
Transfering is with your floppy dirve. I use a 1541 and XE1541 cable. All works the same as the C64 in every way. Use Star Commander to transfer.
