Subject: Looking to buy a Model B, Australia
Its difficult to know these days. Where are you by the way? I am in
Adelaide, and I have not ideas at all for South Australia!
I don't have a working one, and even if I did I would not entertain the
idea of accepting money in exchange for it. (I have three dead ones) It
would be a gift to a good home.
In Victoria the sort of people that come to mind would be
Karl Hradsky,
I don't know how you would contact Karl. Last I knew he was in
Healesville or somewhere like that, far outer east of Melbourne. A
phone book for the area may help.
Mal McClenaghan
Mal may have some ideas, though he was probably only in the RISC PC/ARM
7500 era. The details below are almost certainly dubious.

Victoria, 3088, Australia

East West Computing
Somebody associated with these guys may have one wedged under cupboard
somewhere. They are the last organisation from the era that I know of
still trading.

>From my point of view supporting these the last bastions were the
special schools, who carried on using them for a good 10 years after
everybody else moved on. The people I knew in that line have all
retired now though.

Sorry, I gave mine away a couple of years ago. There must be others out
there though.
