Is it possible / realistic to replace the connector on a Memopak? It has total broken!

The case itself will be pretty good once cleaned up. Might end up as a Spand case…
As far as I can remember the Memotech case only fitted around the "classic" spands not the plus versions.

I typed 10 PRINT

Go home Zeddy! You’re drunk!
I believe that's the one fitted with the Venusian Loob-dingle ROM chip therfore R@RE!!!

PRANL being the Loob word for print, but then I think you already knew that. :lol:
