About
When Bill Miller's large Timex/Sinclair collection became available, the group organized to acquire, catalog, and distribute it — a major community preservation effort documented in a 169-message thread, with follow-on repair and restoration work (e.g. the ZX Spectrum 48K Ryan took on). A model for how the community keeps machines and materials out of the landfill.
