   Anyone near Cambridge UK wanting old, possibly non working, 80s computer shit and able to collect in the next week?

   I think I have a C64, Amiga 1200, maybe a ZX81

     @martincampbell2 @goatsarah Having donated already, they are interested in anything that can be used to keep exhibits running, or working kit they don't already have.

     @sashabilton It is. Can we meet up sometime in the next week?

     It hasn’t been powered up in decades. I don’t know what state it’s in.

     @goatsarah Hiya, if the Amiga 1200 is still available I'd be interested?

     @goatsarah @goatsarah yes absolutely. I'm north London based but can drive up either Tuesday morning, Thursday morning or Friday. Perfectly happy with it not working as I like trying to fix things :)
