The forwarded article is from the University of Cambridge internal news,
but I should imagine it is of interest to the group.

Cheers,

Hi,

  I have some Acorn kit which I no longer wish to house or own.  I'd
rather it went to a collection or museum, however if someone hasn't
collected or bought it by Saturday afternoon it goes to the Milton
Recycling centre here in Cambridge.

  If you're interested mailto:brian.cockburn@... or call me on
(01223) 566118.

  Cheers, Brian.
