Goodness, I'm sorry to hear that Matt. Been there, done that and it can be a stressful and traumatic time.
About the only thing I'm after is an Atari 800 or a System 80 Mk II business machine, but I don't think you have either one of those?
All the best for what can be a difficult period.

Yep, no TRS80 ish things left. I've got some sytem80 and trs80 manuals that anyone can have for free pickup.

If I collect much more stuff I'll end up in the same boat. >_<
Keen to get a stable c64 breadbin, and 1541 if you have one, the ones I have are a bit flaky.
And Amiga spare parts won't hurt either I guess. Not too interested in non-commodore stuff unless it needs saved from the tip.

Sorry to hear
As usual my interests would be PCs - IBM, Apricot, Compaq, or clones - if you had anything like that to go.
If I can help with moving machines or storage just let me know.

No original disks for Apples, and what disks I have are probably moldy.

I've got a few boxed 64's, and I think 1541's coming out my ears.

Hi mat. Shame your getting rid of stuff. I'd be interested in hearing more about the Acorn related stuff. PM me if you like.

Well, that's no good.
My Apple II collection lacks a (black) bell and howell Apple II+, a IIc+ and a zip8000, or a Dick Smith Cat. Or another CF3000 if one was going.
I'm interested in Apple II's of all descriptions, or genuine IBM. PC.. XT... AT.. or a decent 286 clone.. Particularly real diagnostics disks or working 360k drives.
