I'm getting nervous. I've not had time to try anything. Everything has been in storage since before lockdown. Hopefully no magic smoke when I turn them on. I've no working CRT that fits in my boot so I'm bringing the kitchen LCDTV which I've never used with a classic computer before. Hopefully it supports 240p

I can't find the SCART cable or PSU for my 8-bit Amstrad 6128+. I may bring it for display purposes.

Car packed with 20 minutes in hand.

I've packed my Hakko FR-301 just in case people need some de-soldering, along with my head-mounted magnifier and Owon portable oscilloscope/multimeter. I've also packed a keycap puller and Electrolube EWL in case keys on the Memotech start acting up. You can never be too careful when it comes to old machines.

I've also packed an old router so that if there's any software to upload to the Falcon030 I can do it using the NetUSBee-lite and my MacBook Air.
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.
