OK, for the museum (leads on possible sources in the UK very useful too,
obviously!):

- Cray - one of the circular ones preferably as the public can identify
more readily with those. 
- Thinking Machines CM-2 or CM-5  [1]
- Sun 4/330 (or similar) to provide spares to get our RAP
'supercomputer' operational again
- Vectrex [2]
- ICL 2966 CPU (we have the rest in order to make a complete system)
- NeXT Cube or Slab (preferably a Cube but either would be nice)

[1] Actually people like to see the big stuff in general, so anything
considered from the 50s - early 90s. Lots of flashing lights really draw
the crowds though, hence the desire to get a CM-2 or -5!

[2] I have a particular fondness for the Vectrex, but again (as we try
to be hands-on with as much stuff as possible) I except one would be
really popular with the public.

Potentially we have a lot of stuff to trade with...

cheers
