I'd had some microfiches lying around for a while now (-79, 81-, 85-) and now I can finally get to look at them!

A great alternative to the telly ;-) except they can make you feel pretty queasy after a while sm81

... and now I know why it was only 1,50€ - it's broken already :-( Doesn't seem to be the bulb either.

Very enjoyable while it lasted though, you feel like James Bond whizzing through secret files!

AFAIK VADIS only goes back to 1985, so Mk II and Mk I fans will probably already be familiar with these machines...

I was gutted when the local dealer dumped theres. I realy wanted the amazon and PV ones. The worst thing is they actualy opened the PV one for the first time when my old man went in a month or so before the got thrown :cry:

Hope you manage to fix your one
