I'm in Romford, though most of my kit comes from Beebug in St. Albans. They should probably still be good for this. There are a few Acorn dealers closer (a couple in Chelmsford, if memory serves, though I can't remember exactly, and Pineapple in Ilford), but not all dealers would still do this upgrade (IIRC it involved the removal and replacement of the MEMC in a board with another like it so that the second 4MB could be seen, though I seem to remember that the 8MB limit was OS inflicted more than hardware). -- ______ | /\ | /\/\ _ _| _ | _ Chris Johnson - madoka@argonet.co.uk | //\\ | | |/-|/_|/_\|</-| url: http://www.argonet.co.uk/users/madoka/ |_/__\_| ------------------ ...
