We have a large number of Acorn BBC computers, and indeed many other Acorn computers.
The BBC Micro is by far the most popular machine in the range. Its design was commissioned by the BBC and was sold to schools across the country.
Launched in 1981
We have a number of Acorn BBC Micros, some boxed with original accessories. We also have a huge selection of accessories and software as well as matching monitors.
The space this machine takes up on a desk with its monitor and stand is 46(w) x 62(d) x 47(h) (cm).
We have over 20 of these machines but for runs of 8 or more we will have to supply 2 or 3 slightly different styles of monitors. We have the Cub monitors (pictured) and Philips green screen monitors.

Multiple Items & Job Lots
If you're looking to fit out an entire set and need many items, we are happy to quote a discounted rate based on the quantity of items.
Dry Hire
The term dry hire means to hire an item without having a technician supplied to support it. Most of our small items are available to dry hire, but some of the more complicated equipment that require specialist knowledge are not. In these cases we will deliver the item(s) personally and set them up for you. Please call us for a quotation based on the hire period and location.
