With regards to what I'm bringing, these will be complete sets with all the monitors/TVs & cables required, all tested beforehand. And some big rack power strips. :-)
Intro retro computers since before they were retro...
ZX81->Spectrum->Memotech MTX->Sinclair QL->520STM->BBC Micro->TT030->PCs & Sun Workstations.
Added code to the MiNT kernel (still there the last time I checked) + put together MiNTOS.
Collection now with added Macs, Amigas, Suns and Acorns.

I'll probably bring whatever I think to throw in the boot on the day, however I do intend the following to be there:
  • F030 with DFB1
  • STE with DSTB1
  • STFM with PiStormST
Plus a few old boards to gawp at and likely some of my other addons such as
  • Smalliermouse
  • The 12-bit colour ST graphics card cartridge
What to demo on each machine is a conundrum, however. Suggestions would be appreciated beforehand and on the day.

I may be a bit short on the old monitor front, mind!

Cheers,

BW
DFB1 Open source 50MHz 030 and TT-RAM accelerator for the Falcon
Smalliermouse ST-optimised USB mouse adapter based on SmallyMouse2

I plan to bring:

Atari TT (Containing: Speedy 48mhz bus booster, 64mb TT ram, ATI Mach64, LightningUSB, RaSCSI, Daynaport Wireless Ethernet)
Short ST (Containing: 16Mhz booster, 4mb soldered-in-ram, internal pico-psu power, rgb-to-hdmi output, built-in Gotek flashfloppy with LED display)

Hope to get the TT connected to Wifi (with the help of Bomber and a wifi dongle he might be getting) so I can demonstrate how the TT can surf the web using an internal web proxy inside the RaSCSI which 'dumbs down' modern web to readable old-computer old-web standard.

The Short-ST is kind of cool with all of its internal mods and what I've managed to do with it, so will bring that for curiosity purposes.

For Sale: Will bring some random electronics/atari related stuff to sell. Not sure what yet.

@Robson Absolutely cannot wait to see the ATW800!!! I am a Unix nerd and cannot wait to see that running ParhelionOS!!!! So cool!!!

This is something I will be really interested in. I have two TTs and one is connected to the network but using Ethernet.

Yeah I'll show you how awesome it is! :D Whenever I mention it to most TT users they're like 'yawn, I has ethernet...' They don't really get how awesome the RaSCSI is. Glad you see the value!

I might have another flatscreen I can bring to lend you for the day but I've not used it with Atari's - I just kept as it was old and probably had the right ports! (Scart, RF and VGA - not Atari specific)

Cheers, @viking272. If it's no bother to chuck in, then please do. I might be able to scrape enough together, but can't hurt to have a fall-back plan!

I'm noticing a few people with screen availability issues here.

If it helps anyone, I have an NEC Multisync 19" TFT I can bring (if you have an ST to VGA lead wired for RGB low res)...heck, I've even got a couple of 15-31khz multisync 14" CRTs (Aydin Rangers), but I will not have (or be able to) wire up the cables for them in time. If anyone wants to do that, then be my guest...you can use the monitor(s) and I will even pay you for the lead(s) afterwards! :D

Also, If I can dig it out, I can bring the ST/Amiga Format issue with the Transputer feature and interview with (IIRC...?) Tim Lang? @Robson might want to borrow that. :)

@alexh I can bring the Jag. I also have an SD cart (the RetroHQ one). I can also bring the one jagpad I have. However, I do have a team tap unit somewhere too, so we can do multiplayer if anyone else has jagpads? ;)
