I'd thought about going but my wife persuaded me otherwise

Have you seen Maker Faire UK at Newcastle which takes place on March 12/13. Last years event had a retro gaming and retro computer presence with BBC's, UK101's and Parallax based game consoles on shown, as well as many other cool maker things.

Got some pics of the computers (Sinclair's and Acorn's) with the mobile: http://picasaweb.google.com/filipe.rina ... directlink

It was very cool event. Lots of consoles. All free available for the people have a seat and play.

Cheers,
