Re: [Fairlight-CMI] Re: Lightpen for IIx?

2005-09-13 by Harald Feldmann

Hi Scott, Congratulations on your IIx, I take it you negotiated a good price with the seller. I got Al's series III, which turned out to be a revision 8 unit with router card. I guess you've received a question from the seller already regarding the cables for the series III, I'm

Did you get "Big Al's" IIx?? If so tell us about it!! Any cool ministry sounds?? I hardly ever use the light pen on my IIx. Since my monitor isn't burned in I keep it pretty dim to conserve it..and when it's turned down the light pen won't work well anyway. Congrats on getting a

HI Scott, I have a IIx being recapped by my tech for the moment and one of the big problem of course was a none working lightpen. After searching a lot for companies that were able to deliver this in the past we had to face that no-one had a spare lightpen working. So what we did
