Nope. I think there are three variants of the keyboard font, of which the first two only should appear on a few two-prong machines while the third one got used on most two-prongs, CR models and of course other Commodore machines. The grey function keys only have been spotted on late CR models as fa...

I've got a couple of disks to send your way if you like. They are c64 based levels, but you might be interested anyway.

See here or here. Schema and Boray both have CDs out. Enjoy!

I'll try to hunt down a cleaning disk. I take it eBay is the easiest? Don't bother.

Hmm... 16 out of 20. Geez, I need to brush up!

Shall I followup at every other forum too?

http://8bitcentral.com/ takes me to a lame domain squatter placeholder type page. Thanks.

I suppose someone could, although I'm not sure it'd make much difference. The physical appearance of the tapes seem rather worn and a lot of them weren't of particularly good quality. However, if someone else would like to have another pass and Brian would like that, feel free.
