[Imc-g8-2005] [resistg82005] Does anyone need computers?

[ben]

What's this about needing CDROMs? There are about 15 or so at rampART 
but why are they needed?
We also have maybe 10 small harddrives - ANYONE WITH OLD HARDDRIVED 
PLEASE HAND THEM OVER!
We DONT need any more keyboards, networks leads or powerleads.

BUT Did the mice arrive in scotland with the computers? (we did pay for 
them and not keyboards)
