The issue opens with Logout's editorial introducing a new cursor-driven menu and a 20-year chronicle of JHCon featuring event history, attendee lists, and compo results. Technical sections cover Z80 number-printing routines, 3pix scroll, and ZXAssembler for ZX-81, alongside hardware articles on Xberry-Pi, the Didaktik Kompakt 128k RAM mod, QL Restored, and Z80 origins. The games section reviews Ikarie XB-1, Bratrstvo kočičí pracky, and Gold Finder Man, followed by reports from Forever 2023 and KapliCon in Exile 2023. Rounding out the issue are Wotnau's two-part essay on preserving 8-bit heritage, reviews of Jaroslav Švelch's book Jak obehrát železnou oponu and TV series, and closing notes written for JHCon 2023 (December 3, 2023).
