TBH I think that would spoil the look, and since they don't get in the way it's not an issue. I just don't like the 1/2 watt resistor, it's out of place :dizzy:

The space could easily take some though.

Oh. Where's it coming from?
Intro retro computers since before they were retro...
ZX81->Spectrum->Memotech MTX->Sinclair QL->520STM->BBC Micro->TT030->PCs & Sun Workstations.
Added code to the MiNT kernel (still there the last time I checked) + put together MiNTOS.
Collection now with added Macs, Amigas, Suns and Acorns.

From eBay, but they are usually pretty quick. Maybe tomorrow.
