Do you mind if I reference this elsewhere?

Feel free (but NB the terms remain the same).

The Computing history museum would probably be interested in this lot, although you'd have to take it to them. That's what I eventually did with the C++ user's group magazines that were in turn foisted onto me.

cam.misc made the same suggestion, I've emailed them.

I have a friend who's into retrocomputing and would take any or all of this stuff, if it's still available. By happy chance I'm staying with him this coming weekend for the Discworld Convention, so could collect it on his behalf if that suited?

When would be convenient to collect? I'm afraid I'm busy Friday evening but could do Saturday morning if that's not cutting the timing too fine for you.
