[QUOTE="Analoguesat, post: 1058181, member: 176362"] We had loads of RM Nimbus 186's in store when I started at the place 20 years ago - they all went up the tip a very very long time ago. Strangely enough there is actually a 380Z in the building - its supposedly a treasured item in the computing dept, although when I saw it yesterday it was shoved on a shelf with books piled on top of it! It predates me starting there, and I keep threatening to take it on one last journey to the scrapyard :-rofl2 The heaps cluttering up my store room are Ascend 2020's & 3030's in this form: [ATTACH=full]119596[/ATTACH] Capable enough in their day - but tired and well past their best now. Ive managed to keep a few of the 3030s going around the school on the main network with some tlc & heavy refurbishment back in 2012. At the same time the best of the lower spec 2020s were refurbed as standalones in the music dept & the really poor ones awaiting collection were used as parts donors to keep them running. [/QUOTE]
