Never sell!

And never let carting stuff across oceans be a problem!

I insisted on taking my Amiga stuff and other 8/16/32 bit computers and associated peripherals (or junk, depending on your perspective!) from the UK to NZ - and you can't get much further to travel than that!

Emulation is all well and good, but there are times when you'll need a fix of real hardware!!!

Yep! If you've got a container booked anyway, you might as well use it!

That's what I did, brought three PCs, an A1200, A600, A500, A1000, Atari ST, Sinclair QL, several Spectrums, BBC, Archimedes, ZX81, ZX80 and lots of other computer-related "junk" all the way from the UK to New Zealand.

There was no way I was going to sell or give away any of it!

And I'm pleased to report there were no casualties - everything survived the journey and still works well.
