Science Museum may well be interested Scruff.

Failing that hang onto it - your great, great, great, great grandchildren will show it on the BBC's 'Antique Show' where it will be valued at some £4.5B. Mind a box of matches will cost £1.2B by then.

I ain't got enough room for the rubbish they may come in handy some day, let alone the junk that won't.

Apparently 5" floppy are nowadays considered weapons and you can't sell them to under 18.

I'll pass, have enough IT and electronic related junk laying around.

Do have an Amstrad CPC 464 laying around and did have a Commodore Amiga A600 also, which I was gonna repair the serial ports on (connectors broke from overuse and a sharp bump)
