Much as I love my dear old SAM, I rarely use it now, and would rather it go to a good home. I've had years of pleasure from SAM and the whole SAM world, but now it gathers dust, and rarely has its old power supply warmed-up.
Unfortunately, the deal comprises of quite a lot of stuff, so I don't want to mail it. I prefer to have it collected in one go. I'm still sorting out a few things, but here's what I currently have for the package so far: Sam 512k with twin disk drives Sambus One meg module Mouse Joystick printer interface COMMS interface 200meg IDE disk drive & interface from Steve's Software Star LC10 printer (with one or two new ribbons, somewhere) Printer cable, SCART lead and other clutter. Phillips CM8833 MkII monitor Loads of original software, a pile of Formats and ZATs, even a SAM drinks mat! What price, I hear you ask. Umm, how does £100 sound? Where will it have to be collected from? Glorious Birmingham. If more than one person is interested, I could put the names into a proverbial hat, and select just one. However, another option is to announce a Saturday in the next month or two, or three, and maybe the package could be carefully split among SAM enthusiasts, on the understanding that I want as much to go as possible. I also hope to check over my second 512k SAM (without too much hardware, but has one disk drive) and let that go as well, if it's OK. I've also got an old pre-Amstrad Spectrum 128k with a Plus D set-up, but that'll need checking too. Anyone who's interested in this offer, please let me know so we can sort out something that may be fair for all concerned. If nobody replies, there's always the council tip. (Only joking!)
