If it's the same chap I sold a lot of kit to (he must have bought about
ten beebs off me over a year or two) he is indeed retired. He lives in
Cambridge - when I started working there for Sony the other year I began
dropping the computers off in person. Had a very nice cup of tea and a
chat. Very nice man, with a very understanding spouse. :)
