It was at Aintree Racecourse in Liverpool, run by Abacus I think..I've also
seen the vendor at Bowlers in Manchester on a Saturday.
No more luck on the IBM, I'm afraid.. can't get it to identify in the BIOS
and the computer won't even boot with it attached. I know power is getting
to the drive, as you can hear it power up, and you can feel the vibration
through the drives casing..very frustrating....
