Hey Nick,
Nice to hear from you, hope you are going well! The prospect of buying a house is somewhat scary, if I think about it too much it depresses me (ie. $$$$$$), but have a fairly optimistic view that something will come along one day. Cardboard or not, I look forward to owning a meagre house I can attempt to renovate.
I don't think I ever went back to AUSOM short of the time we met up (maybe a swap meet or two), it's changed too much from the good old days of "Youth and Adventure", ie. let's pirate as much stuff as can fit on 10 x 800K diskettes
If you're ever down the city sometime, let me know, would be good to catch up and compare whatever crazy old Apple item that's the flavour of the month with us.
Nice score on the LEGO gear! My current gem is a Powerbook 2400c - upgraded with 112MB RAM/40GB HD, 320Mhz Newertech G3, wireless card. I repaired two with a "GLOD" error - we had to source the SMT fuses from the US - and was very kindly given one to cherish. Surely not too many of these in Oz!
