Newest additions
Update: June 2021:
As with the nature of retro computing, items get bought and items get sold. Before moving house in August 2020, the majority of my collection was off-loaded to other collectors.
The BBC Micro, PiCade, Psion Organiser, TRS-80, Additional Einsteins were all sold to a) get some money for the house move and b) to save having to keep them in storage while the new house was made ready.
Since moving, I have acquired more Einsteins and a ZX Spectrum. The Einsteins have again been off-loaded and the ZX Spectrum is being refurbished to make new – It has a faulty Power Jack and keyboard membrane.
All these machines will be featured at some point on my YouTube channel, so keep watching;
Update: October 2024
99% of my retro collection was sold in August – October 2023 in preparation of us selling the house and moving into our Motorhome full time. I have kept some equipment in storage and items like the GreaseWeazle have been saved from sale as it has a full complement of disk drives with it for various system archiving.
Lack of space and cost of external storage was a limiting factor in what I could keep and what had to go. At least they all went to collectors, I made sure of that.
Retro computing is now performed via the plethera of emulators that are availble under Windows, and that keeps me going for now.
