Autopsy:
The computer Lemon II is a “perfect” clone of the Apple ][+ (Apple Europlus) produced in Italy by different companies, Selcom, Jen, Belton and Lemon Italy.
The mainboard was a copy almost identical of the Apple ][+, differ from the original for a few details, such the use of EPROM instead of ROM.
The contents of the ROM was slightly modified to remove any reference to Apple. So the boot screen that show “Apple II” are replaced with “Lemon II”. The Lemon II was therefore not only a computer “compatible” like the original, but a real clone.
The computer won the fame of 100% software compatibility, feature that will determine the commercial success.

I have received a Lemon II computer (Apple ][+ / Europlus Clone) in a good cosmetic condition but with a serious problem at the keyboard, here below defects and repairs that has been made.
Cleaning comparison (before / after):
Gallery of the repair:
Defects:
- First problem: When a keyboard key is pressed is always displayed the same character, in this case the character “O”
- Second problem (which i have only noticed after solving the first one): The keyboard works correctly, all characters are displayed in the correct way, but sometimes the character displayed does not match with the key pressed. Example: when pressing many times the letter “I”, after a while is displayed the character “Y” and after a while it show the right character “I”.
Components Replaced:
I have to thank my friend Luca that called me to inform me that there was still a piece of the SMC KR2376-ST available in the store.

The LO>>PROFILE professional keyboard is the ultimate upgrade for your Spectrum. By replacing its existing keyboard with a high quality LO>>PROFILE, you give this world-beating computer the keyboard it deserves.
The LO>>PROFILE is a full size QWERTY keyboard with full-travel positive-actions keys for super-fast entry of programs and data. Presented in an ultra-modern and robust enclosure, the LO>>PROFILE is elegantly styled and is inclined forwards for convenient operation.
Featuring a full size space bar with dedicated numeric and cursor keypad the LO>>PROFILE increases the number of keys from 40 to 53. A combination of clearly labelled, sculptured and height-adjusted keys aids the advance to fault-free touch-typing.

The conditions of this Commodore 8296 (TAN Case) are really bad. The CBM 8296 is left for over 25 years in a dovecote.
The cleaning, repairing and restoration have taken a very long time, but the result is more than acceptable.
The comparison (before / after):
Defects:
- The Commodore 8296 was completely dead (Black screen of death).
- Little problems of CRT geometry.
Replaced parts:
- Replaced PLA U6 with a OTP EPROM 27C512R 70ns + Adapter
- Replaced the ROM 2 x 2764 Eprom with 1 x 27C128 Eprom (spare parts from a original cbm pcb)
Note:
I have replaced the original ROM (2 x EPROM) pcb because the PLA adapter is fat. I could insert a small castle (photo) between the ROM pcb and the Main Motherboard but in this time i have prefered to replace with a single Eprom.

SNDH archive v4.3 released - 4107 SNDH files (total 7719 tunes)
Ever since the birth of the Atari ST, different chip music formats have had different ways to use them. If you are coding a chip music player for the Atari ST you would have to use dozens and dozens of special ways to replay music.
But in the mid 90′s, BDC of Aura crew became tired of this inelegant system and decided to fix the issue once and for all. He then created the ‘SNDH’ file format. SNDH is actually the original songfile and replaycode with a header bolted on top of the music and replayer. The header has a unified calling interface no matter what type of chip music is hidden beneath it, and it has extended datas about the music.
