Default Re: Retro Computer Festival 5th/6th Nov 2022

Regarding the error, some years ago I noticed that the Discovery Museum in Newcastle - the new(ish) name for what was formerly the Museum of Science and Engineering - had a Sinclair Spectrum and a Sinclair ZX81 in their searchable online collection, but both machines were really badly described and supposedly consisted of a 'Hard Drive' plus other sundry items, although it was clear (to me) from the context that they had used the term 'Hard Drive' to mean 'Console' or 'Computer'. I wrote them a polite email about it and I've just looked and I see that the descriptions have actually been changed at some point, so it can work if you can get hold of the right person.
