Free working QL and broken 512k RAM expander

QL machine works but missing an F key.

Have a bag of microdrives too (x 70).

Priority to those who can collect (GL13) - or if not too far, I can deliver (I love driving) if you cover the cost of hydrocarbons.

All the best

Scott

ps I also have an A500 for spares if anyone wants ;)

Hi Scot!

I'm due a visit to my brother in Weston-SM over the next month or so - so if you haven't found a taker by then, please keep me in mind :-)

Well, I'm looking for an English QL to test hardware development, I could pay all expenses and then some... but I also hate posting stuff, so understand if you prefer collection :-)

Hey all

Ahh ok I wasnt counting on more than one person replying :)

Ill send it to mr MK - its so cool that people are still developing on classic machines.

How about you pay postage, but anything above that.. a donation would be good instead:

In the next few weeks Ill be launching a not for profit and open soure project on either kickstarter or indiegogo. Aim is to crowd fund and crowd develop a range of materials to reduce contagion in shared spaces - deployable in a variety of settings. Could likely be extended to trap undesirable stuff from the air, starting with allergens like pollen.

Its not related to computing, or my core stuff (life science/biodesign/genetics).

Ill post a link here when its live in case anyone is interested ;)

MK79 can you mail me your details?

All the best

Scott, don't suppose that's related to your nickname on here (mochyn cwta=guinea pig)?

The name caught my eye as my brother and I had guinea pigs as pets when we were primary school age.
