Unregistered user The coffee pot used for the first ever web cam, powered by an Archimedes, is up for sale on e-bay...

Maybe we should ask RISCOS Ltd to buy it!

I saw this a few days ago, but seeing as it's only the coffee machine - and a none-working one from the latter half of the web cam's life at that - I decided not to go for it. If they were selling the actual Archimedes I'd have at least posted a news item, but it was at over 100UKP for a broken coffee pot which is a bit rich for my blood.

Unregistered user The Register says it's been bought by Der Spiegel, a German magazine, who are going to fix it up and put it back online. I guess that's how they can afford so much money for a broken coffee pot!
