Well. What a response. I've had too many replies to reply to everyone
individually. Here's a mostly-complete list:
2 x BBC micro in good condition, no case yellowing, with keyboard
covers. Both powered up immediately somewhat to my surprise, beeeee-
beep! Not tested with a monitor.
One is plain Jane, in VGC, has the ashtray punchout intact, and apart
from the remains of a sticky label which will be easy to remove, is a
collector's item. Immaculate.
Now, one respondent has offered to come and collect. I will give him
priority unless anyone particularly wants any item(s). Please let me
know ASAP.
I do expect the taker not to just break everything up and flog it on
ebay for profit. If you do sell anything on, please make a donation to
DEC for Haiti. http://www.dec.org.uk. Thanks
cheers
Mike
