The item to guess was a Commodore 64 motherboard.. Yes I left a small clue in the image, bottom center of the upper board. There were lots of eagle eyed people that found the clue! Good job. The winner is Casey B.

Thanks to all who entered.

  4. Mike Says:

    I think it is an LED flashlight.
    As for the thing in the pictures, yep I have one somewhere around here… Lots of fun memories.

  5. Lewis Says:

    Ah, those things are a little before my time :-)

  6. Alan Parekh Says:

    Hi Kevin,

    Mike guessed your answer correct, it is indeed a small LED flashlight. Sorry there is no prize for that. ;)
    I too have some fond memories of this board in use.

  7. default Says:

    *** *** of the *** mainboard etc.

    Anyway, this contest is far too easy.

  8. Alan Parekh Says:

    Hi Default,

    You found the one hint that I left for the eagle eyed person. I left that there on purpose but I removed some details in your comment that would make it even easier to guess.

    I didn’t think this one was as easy as it seems to be…

    Look out for next weekend, it will be much harder. :)

  9. Giannis Says:

    You missed to erase a spot where it gives exactly the answer… :D (But it was obvious anyway…) :)

  10. Alan Parekh Says:

    Winner announced.
