> Problems gonna be getting the HDD

What type 3.5 or 2.5 inch?

I have a 2.5>3.5 IDE cable converter & I can prolly bodge a power cable cos I got some spare fdd & hdd connectors. Then u can have a small (121Mb) hdd I have laying about I'll even throw in a modified sheild so the drive fits properly )



>new keyboard (anoyne got an old one they want to sell?)

PC 5pin or replacement 1200?

I got a couple of spare 1200 keyboards (maybe a couple of keytops missing) ya can have one for the P&P cost or ya can come & get it
