About 15 people came this month. Lots of interesting stuff repaired.
Ian was able to fix the museum Xerox by swapping out a video board from our
spare Xerox. So now it is working in the museum.

I know that Jeff Salzman worked on testing out Commodore 64 related
hardware. It was a special treat to see him use Magic Voice, a voice
synthesizer for the C64. What I didn't know, but he did, was that Commodore
made cartridges such as Gorf and Wizard of War will have voice enabled when
you plug them into the Magic Voice! They resemble the arcade versions.

Maybe others can fill in what they worked on.
