Hi! Having a clear out and wondered if anyone would be interested in any of these:
* A3000 external Cumana CD-ROM drive (SCSI?) with CD caddies and external podule (~5kg) * A3000 MIDI interface (mini-podule thing in an external podule with one mini-podule free) * Risc PC x86 card, in box with software * Half a box of old magazines - incomplete mix of Archimedes world, Acorn User, Archive etc.
Don't want to send to landfill, so they're free to a good home. However, they're heavy so I would ask for a contribution to postage, or to meet at a mutually convenient time and location (I'm thinking Bristol, Bath, Cheltenham, Sevenoaks, or somewhere in between).
I think the magazines would be impractical to post, but if you wanted a specific issue I'd be happy to check if I have it. |

Half a box of old magazines - incomplete mix of Archimedes world, Acorn User, Archive etc. If it's really just half a box (I'm thinking bulk A4 paper reams but that could be a misplaced assumption), I could probably take them off your hands to put to use later in the year. I can easily collect from Bristol or Keynsham.
usernameAT... (That mail service is due to be withdrawn shortly anyway.)

I can easily collect from Bristol or Keynsham. Ah, sorry, should have been more specific - it's more like half a moving box, so probably more like 2 or 3 A4 ream boxes. If I remember correctly, there's a full Archimedes World binder (12 issues?) in there too.
The magazines are in storage in Sevenoaks at the moment; I'll be able to give you a more accurate measurement when I'm back there in a couple of weeks! |

Sad to report that the magazines were thrown away last month in my absence. Other items still available. |

I'd be interested in the A3000 stuff if it's still available please. |

A bit more info: the CD drive has seen better days (bits are loose - it was rescued from a school), but it seems to be in good working order - it loaded the CDs I tried, except for one scratched one. I don't have any instructions for it, but in RO3 the CD drive appears in the icon bar as long as the drive's plugged in and turned on when the machine boots. I have 4 CD caddies for it.
I don't have a midi keyboard to test the midi interface, but it registers its module when plugged in, so should be fine. Good condition, have manual with SWIs etc.
Drop me a message through http://radiac.net/contact/ and I'll get back to you by e-mail (avoid the spam harvesters). Let me know whereabouts you are, so we can decide whether it would it be easiest for us to meet in a car park, or for me to post it to you. |

Many thanks to Richard for the A3000 CD-ROM drive gear and MIDI podule. |

Ah - am just looking round now for a MIDI interface for a Risc PC and was hoping the A3000 one would be ok but it looks like it's gone. Any ideas where to pick one up from? |

The A3000 uses 'Mini'Podules so no use in a RiscPC.
We have new and S/H MIDI Podules in stock.
Including: http://www.cjemicros.co.uk/micros/individual/newprodpages/prodinfo.php?prodcode=MOR-SHMIDI
Next time I update our website[1] I'll add a S/H MIDIMax on it. At a better price than the one above!
[1]Hopefully today or tomorrow |
