Begger's Department - Items Wanted
Although I now have quite a bit of Nascom and Gemini stuff, there are still some items which I would like, but I have been unable to obtain. I don't necessarily want the hardware (but it would be nice!) but copies of manuals, decent photographs of equipment etc. would be greatly appreciated (photocopies or scans are perfectly acceptable). They are *far* easier to store! I havn't listed *all* the missing gear, just the stuff that I am most interested in.It's no use offering me equipment at "L@@K!!! @NE ONLY!!! VERRRY R@RE!!!" or "collector's" prices. I won't even consider paying them but I am quite happy to pay reasonable carriage if necessary together with a suitable donation to the fund! I'm not too bothered if the equipment is known not to be working.
Needless to say, all contributors get a mention on the Credits page or wherever is appropriate. (The less I pay, the more credit you get :-)) )
