Re: Retro Computer Festival 2023
I'm hoping to go down for the Saturday, trains permitting. Feels like I'm playing a game of chicken booking a hotel more than a fortnight out with the threat of train strikes.
Questions about software preservation (BBC, RISC OS or other platforms)? Please feel free to ask.
Currently looking for RISC OS software to archive and preserve, please drop me a PM if you have any to offer.

Sounds good, I'll make sure someone I know is setup to dump the ROM. Can we see inside the keyboard in advance to determine whether there's anything in there that needs dumping too? Continue discussion back on Discord?

I've sent the images via discord but in case anyone stumbles across this thread in future I've stuck them in the existing thread - viewtopic.php?p=406294
Re: Retro Computer Festival 2023
I had a great time at this event, and it was really nice to meet Pernod, philpem, RetroBytes and many others in person for the first time!
I also made a short video of some highlights for anyone who wasn't able to make it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kHdasy0AXuY
