I think i have atleast 3 of the things on that list! I cant believe theyre in need of BBC's. I still have 4 or 5 in the shed waiting to be chucked out when i have the heart.
Ditto. If the shipping from here wasn't so feckin expensive I'd ship a load of stuff out of my lockup to them. I'm sure there's at least a couple of IBM S/360's in there somewhere.
They can't be trying very hard to find them, unless they are unusual models, comp.sys.acorn.* is very active and requests from museums, collectors etc usually turn up the goods - except Doomsday systems.

And an Electron which I've never actually powered up for more than a couple of minutes. It's the postage costs that are worrying me.
Oi! Who let you in 'ere?

Hiya Nige , I'm posting from uk.comp.vintage
I haven't suddenly bought a Landy
I'll take any - I'll .pdf them though, then they'd get boxed up and put in the lockup!
They are lucky. I have an un-opened Win v1 :-)
2 floppies IIRC.
... yet.
Drool. Happy to take - and .pdf them :-)
Yes, yes, yes... But she's just sooo.....
Urgh... sorry about that...
You've a couple of years grace yet before they start bringing home spotty yoofs. When they do, be sure to dig out the piccies - including this one ;-)

can't you just wait for its wave duality to show up, and just ... um ... let it propagate?
= My brother had one in the early 1960s does that count? :)
I did, don't know if my nephew still has it... going to find out though!

ok - if I get to the 'unofficial' or some other meet this year I'll bring them along.
Don't forget they're yanks, perhaps an email to them pointing out the BBCs were British might be in order ;-)
The timeline on the site was pretty rubbish though, missed out all the non-IBM non-MAC computers of the 80's and 90's.
I tried that, but when I looked to see if it had gone yet, I messed the whole thing up!
I did notice that my cat died though.
