I've tried to work out a fair system of postage so instead of saying a
price plus trying to work out the postage for the order by the weight I've
gone for a flat rate of £2 postage charge on any size order. These prices
reflect one third of the cost approx towards postage. If your local and can
collect these prices will come down accordingly.
I will consider swopping any hardware/software from what ever format
(except old non standard business computers).
Also have other hardware/software available for; Amstrad CPC, Spectrum, Sam
Coupe, PC, Macintosh, C64/128 and some very rare formats.

Archimedes Hardware
*******************
A4000 2MEG, 120MEG Hard drive, mouse, keyboard, Stereo colour monitor, lots
of software (HD full), discs, mags etc. A4000 is the top of the range ARM250
computer. Basically you get PC layout and the ability to use 3.5 IDE hard
drives. has SuperVIDC as I've used it for 800x600 with 256 colours no
problems. Also if you go for a Turbo RAM accelerator then the A4000 is
much better for this because of more generous internal space. £300 for quick
sale and throw in a free fax machine. Originally cost £1000+
A3000 2MEG(upgradable to 4MEG by plugging in extra chips), Risc OS2, lots of
software, mags and all manuals. Can be upgraded to Arm3/Risc OS 3 and hard
drive easily. RGB Colour monitor (TV sync type) and Olivetti Colour 24pin
printer with manual. A complete ready to go system. Serial upgrade
fitted. Computer and printer are practically as new. £190 inclusive.
Basic A3000 2MEG complete as new (except for memory expansion fitted) but no
extras £88
Arm710 board £35 (you can also have a set of 3.5 ROMs if you want them)
Arm610 board £15 (ideal for Strongarm RiscPC owners needing earlier software com
patibility)
PC Card for A3020/4000. 486 processor, 8MEG memory, software etc plus a PC
book or two and some PC mags. Great for serious stuff and windows. Not so
hot for games, more like a 286/slow 386 then. Cost over £600 only £100
(plus free PC beginners course with video )or swop large IDE hard drive.
AKF18 TV to SVGA 14" multisync monitor. A good example of this monitor. I've
used it for Archimedes, Risc PC, BBC, Electron, Amiga, Atari ST, Macintosh.
Maximum resolution 1600x600 (Risc PC), 800x600 PC (non interlace, higher
modes possible with some PC graphics cards using interlace or low refresh
rate modes). Also syncs right down to tv resolutions so no letterboxing.
Originally £290 2 1/2 years ago only £110 inclusive. Can probably help out
with connectors if your planning to use it with computers other than
Archimedes/PCs. Its got a captive 15HD connector cable.
MTC 14" Multisync. Nice simple monitor with pleasant styling. Does normal PC
640x480 and 800x600 resolutions on PC. Will also do many others on Risc PC
like 1600x600. Does not sync to TV modes so letterboxing or high refresh
compatible modes. Full framing controls. Tilt/Swivel stand. Superb picture,
high resolution, vivid colours. £85 inclusive. standard captive cable. Not
suitable for BBC. Pay an extra £25 and I'll supply a basic VGA PC to go with
it. 640k and 20MEG hard drive full of software.

Risc OS 2.0 ROMs (removed from a A3000 that was upgraded to 3.1, I imagine

have more base memory). £2 or free if your buying something else.

Consider anything for the Archimedes/Risc PC in exchange for any of my 8bit hard
ware/software.
In fact I'll considering swopping anything computer or console related or
even simply electronic based so its always worth a try.

socket at the back. I'd like to know the exact pinouts so I can make a
cable.
