Cleaned computers up, then quit working? (6)
I believe the answer is:
tidied
'cleaned' is the definition.
The answer and definition can be both related to change as well as being past participle verbs.
Maybe you can see a link between them that I can't see?
'computers up then quit working?' is the wordplay.
'computers' becomes 'IT' (information technology).
'up' is a reversal indicator (in down clue: letters go upwards).
'then' is a charade indicator (letters next to each other).
'quit working?' becomes 'died' (I've seen this in another clue).
'it' back-to-front is 'ti'.
'ti'+'died'='TIDIED'
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for tidied that I've seen before include "Cleaned up" , "Given order" , "Cleared away" , "Made neat and orderly" , "Arranged neatly" .)
