Daniel, 

What are you subjecting on us?  :-) The above page took nearly a minute to load on
my 512/128 ADSL connection and it didn't have any images in it (correction, they
are still loading).  It is a great example of Word-generated "HTML" (term used
loosely).  227 kB with no images.

I don't know if an "Australian" computer museum should have foreign computers no
matter how nostalgic they are for their former users, or else the Aussie computers
will be hard to spot.  I didn't see the Microbee in that document.

Ash
