Request: Apple Mac with Floppy Drive (Hermitage RG18) Hi, a long shot but....Does anyone have an old Apple Mac with a floppy disc drive that does 800kb discs, that I could have, or borrow, or could copy some discs for me please. Short story, I acquired a box of discs and it turns out that they are the original composition files for music for some BBC radio dramas. I would like to back them up and archive them, but they cannot be read on a standard drive due to the formatting. Thank you.

Request: Old computer bits (Hermitage RG18) Received Hi, I'm resurrecting an old late 1990s PC. Does anyone have an old IDE hard drive that is smaller than 8Gb in size? Either 2.5" or 3.5" format will do. The motherboard bios will not take a larger size and I cannot get it to boot from a flash card. I also need some power cables for 3.5" and 5.25" drives. An old or broken psu would do for those. Many thanks.

Request: Reel to reel tapes (Hermitage RG18) Expired Hi, a long shot, but if anyone has any old reel to reel tapes, empty spools, cases or any reel to reel accessories that are no longer wanted, I can give them a good home. Any size and condition welcome. I have a reel to reel tape deck and love finding old tapes with music, radio shows, interwiews and anything else that can be recorded to tape. I can collect most days and times by arrangement. The photo is taken from the Internet as an example of what I am looking for. Many thanks Steve **Note to moderators** I have tried locally with no success. I travel to the Oxford area frequently, so I am trying here and will arrange collection to coincide with one of my trips. Thank you.
