I'm afraid Shak has already got his mitts on the tape drive and the hard
drive, but there's quite a few cdroms.

I've at least 4 non-EDO 2 meg simms. I;ve also got a bag of mixed
SIMMS. I searched through these until I found 4 x 2 meg simms for my
PS/2 2-16 meg expansion card (hmmm, that reminds me, loads of PS/2
hardware to dispose of as well!!!!) So there may be more in there. I'm
afraid I don't know how to identify them!
Are you off to the meeting tonight? If so I can bring all the stuff
then. I may be coming in a car. If so I will bring it all anyway. If
not, I'll bring the light stuff. But I'm off climbing before, so may not
be able to bring it all!
Cheers

Person never fufilled their promise though, and just went and skipped
