I hope you are aware that Sweden is pretty big, and Lule? is rather far
north... It's about 900km from Stockholm... It will take a very long day
to just drive one way with a pick up... You'd need a minimum of two days
for a trip there and back from Stockholm. If you live further south in
Sweden, you might want to add another day to it.
(I'd probably use three days just from Stockholm, if I were to estimate
things...)

Would you be able to save the boards from any of the machines that would
otherwise
be scrapped? I am guessing RX01 floppies may not be easy to find
either.
There are bits I would be interested in, but as I live in the UK and shipping
isn't possible it looks like I will have to pass on them :-(
Mmmm.. road trip. Pity I only have a mini :)
