The Sinclair QL Forum

I am about to throw out a ql with Microvitec monitor, ql modem, numerous games and unused drives. I don't think the tape drive on the ql is working but it would be OK for spare parts. If any members are local to Aberdeenshire they are welcome to pick it up before I throw it out in around 2 weeks time,

Please don't throw it out, hopefully we can get track down someone to collect it Thank you for posting!

Aberdeenshire, not too far a drive from where I live in Glasgow!

Id certainly be interested in trying to arrange collection!

Hi Andy- yes please don't throw it out - I would like any software you have for the preservation project - and disk interfaces are being asked for all the time.

Hopefully XorA can arrange collection and make copies of anything useful for the preservation project.

Otherwise, I can arrange a courier (just got a box load of stuff coming down from Scotland this week!) - collection is better though to make use of the monitor - as it would only get damaged in transit by courier....

XorA,

I'm down in a Glasgow a lot to see my kids and grandchildren. My next trip is the weekend of March 15th. Whereabouts are you in Glasgow?

Andy Mackay

Hi Andy,

I am in Pollockshaws, but meeting you anywhere in Glasgow would be pretty easy.

XorA,

I'm going to be in Langside, probably coming down March 14th, so not far from Pollockshaws. I'm not sure if I can contact you via this site to arrange pick up or drop off,
