from what i understand they were hooked upto analysers in a lab, purchased at the same time as the analysiers, the labs grant had run out and the lab was cleared ready for the next group to come in, anything not wanted was dumped
i've had 6 or so bbc b's, and a couple of acorn archimedes over the years, kept the best beeb to play with and the rest went on that well known online auction site.....

anyway, got no software with them, got power supplies, mice,1 external floppy drive and a gvp impact series 2 hard drive.

was looking at getting a cheap game off fleabay to try, and ask on the forum if anyone has a workbench disk i can borrow/buy/get copy off
