Hmm, were they originally Brazil in ROM, or did they run something else?

Somewhere I have an email from Acorn where they were selling off redundant 
A500 stock - I think it was something like ?20 per machine. I bet they go for 
a bit more than that on ebay these days!

If nobody else can just cough up the necessary, I've got a few routes I can 
look at; I think I should be able to track them down one way or another.

cheers
