I read the link, am I to assume that the S-plus machine then was made in 1990?
I can't believe it's so hard to find that information. I have searched Google every which way to find out what was manufactured when. I didn't even know that they made an "M" machine.
What year is yours?
Tilt says he has one that was made in 1986, the same year the S-slots were introduced.
So far I like the machine. It has a few quirks, but nothing I can't live with. I will start keeping my eye out for parts. For starter, buttons. The buttons don't all match, and I'm not even sure if they are correct to the S-slot machine. I am still doing my research.
