Hmm, any hard disks with data on? This one (as seems to be common with
A680s) is minus a hard disk, so it'd be nice to find someone with an
A680 that does have a disk and grab an image of whatever data's on it.

I *think* I have schematics somewhere, but I'll shout if not -
definitely be useful to have!
 
The R140 was Acorn's RiscIX build machine, so I'm hoping the hard disk
in that is still alive as it presumably has full sources on it...


The System 3's got both the versatile interface and lab interface boards
in it which is really nice - I've not come across those before (just the
usual CPU / FDC / VDU etc. boards).

Just got a call from the chap, so it's off for another carload... :-)

cheers
