   Thanks for the offer, but I already have a surplus of secondhand older
cases and motherboards, many just short of memory.

   I am a few minutes walk from the Central Line at North Acton, so it would
probably be easiest for me to collect. Mornings, evenings, and weekends are
usually best for me. I am not sure what would make an Acorn floppy drive
different from any other, unless the drive ID is non-standard compared with
the ones in PCs (which I think are set to address 1 and the cable modified
so that a drive connected to the end of the ribbon appears as 0).
