I'm currently planning to bring:
1 x BBC Master, with internal IDE CF hard drive
1 x BBC B+, with internal IDE CF hard drive
2 x BBC B, one with external RetroClinic DataCentre
1 x Acorn A3020, with internal SD card hard drive and L4 file server
I suspect that one of the BBC B's may be rejected as being too tatty though
(the case is rather yellowed)
All have Econet interfaces. I'll bring my bits of cabling, terminators and
clock,
but I suspect others will have better versions of all of these.
