Ooh, should you:

- manage to get it fixed up by the beginning of March
- decide to come along to Byte Back

.. any chance you could bring it with you*? ;)

The 'Mailing List' table is still virtually empty and I might end up having to
unassign it unless there is more confirmed interest soon.

* = doubt there'll actually be enough space to play with buggys etc on the
Saturday; but I'm sure we'd be able to set them up Sunday, when there will be
less people/more room.

Btw, I spotted details of another discounted offer on the homepage
<http://byte-back.info> yesterday:

"We are now finally able to accept payment for ticket orders by cheque and
postal order. Since those wishing to pay by this method missed out on the
'Early Bird' offer, we are offering Adult Tickets for just only ?10 if you
pay by cheque/postal order before 31st January."

Finally, I've just added lots more detail to the Acorn "line up":

Loads of interesting gear now, though we still need more volunteers to bring
monitors ...

Cheers
Dave.
