Well, assuming you need at least two machine for a network, I'm half way 
there..

I've got a "Torch 68000 hard disc" machine...  BBC B, 68000 co-processor, 
modem, hard disc and colour monitor in one box.  Bloody heavy piece of 
metal it is too.   It /was/ working a few years ago, but the last time I 
tried it, it wasn't..

Actually I don't know if it's got the network hardware on board, as I've a 
feeling the Beeb B board was swapped with another machine at some point 
early in it's life.

Anyway, if there's anybody out there who's been searching for one for 
years, can fix it, and most importantly can give it a good home where it 
can be useful, let me know!  I could sure do with the cupboard space back..

Rob.
