As Adam says a very nice piece of kit. :D

I did wonder though why the display seems shunted to the right with no right hand border, in the H4th Rom manner. Is this just a monitor out of adjustment thing or a feature of the Minstrel?

My Minstrel 3 is centred.
In theory, there is no difference between theory and practice. But, in practice, there is.

I expect it's the monitor. The knob for the horizontal position takes a screw driver, just me being lazy. My Galaksija displays with the
same shift.
