I hear you, but I had a different experience. I went from cringing at the beginning to pleased at the end. It turned the corner with me when he said "of course it still works". :-)

Certainly a "messing about" style, I'll grant you, but if you look past that it was evident to me he took the time to research it, even learning enough about the machine to load up the buffer in the printer with an ASCII string, which seemed like a pretty arcane task.

But I apologize if I offended anyone. I've been following that channel for years and perhaps overstepped. I'll delete the original post if I can, or the link if not.
