Im definitely interested. Both look to be German layout.

Not too bothered about looks, but as long as I can coerce one into some sort of working condition...job done.

Will try and remember bring them down. You can have first dibs as you spied them first

Meet me after dark in the carpark for more shady deals

Considering I wasn't going to bring anything, I seem to be getting a van load of stuff to bring down

Hmm... If I even suspect theres a deck chair present, I will run.

So it seems, eh?

You might sell a few bits after all.

I mean, youre going to be at the best place to sell retro computer stuff, if ever there was one.

Im clean broke, so I might try trading some bits and bobs.

@mrbombermillzy I'd check his mode of transport, if it turns out to be a dirty yellow Reliant Regal Supervan III then you'll know exactly what to do. Cushty.

Yeah.. not sure how many people are actually going, doesn't seem like many, so not hopeful of shifting some clutter.

Know the feeling Happy to trade stuff if its my usual flavor of stuff..

I've got a similar Ladbroke 4M upgrade (shifter board but then soldered connections for the connection usually made from the MMU - that's been in my original 1040STF since the fitted it in the late 80s.

Last thing I bought from them was my Falcon...which must be getting on for 30 years ago now.

I tell you what, apparently there was a mythical (IIRC) German made 8mb STRAM upgrade board made for the STFM.

If you have one of those knocking around, bring it along and add it to the tab.

I think I saw the schematic for that but don't think anyone ever made it. Not sure if the schematic was complete though.

Easier just to get a 8mb altram card

But yeah if I find any mythical unicorns it's yours.
