RAM was my first thought, only 2 chips and cheap so will order some anyway.

Re: The age of Aquarius
The RAM was a common problem in ORICs.

Re: The age of Aquarius
Thankfully my Oric is fine, but RAM is ordered for the Aquarius

Re: The age of Aquarius
Over 50 now, including consoles
Around 20 STs of all types (ST, STF, STFM, Mega and MSTE), 65XE (owned from new), 800XL, 600XL, 2x 1050 disk drives, 2600 x3, 7800, Atari Lynx II, ZX81, 2x Spectrums, QL, ICL One Per Desk, 3x BBC B, Acorn Electron, C64, 1541 FDD, Amiga 1200, Amstrad NC100, HP Jornada 820, 2x SGI Octane, Oric Atmos, Dolch LPAC, Amstrad Alt-386, Epson HX-20, Sony PSP, GP32, GP2x, NES, SNES, Gameboy Advance Colour, Dreamcast (Owned from new), Gamecube, Wii, Nintendo DS, Nintendo DSi, Apple ][e, Mac Classic, Mac Performa 6200, Mattel Aquarius....
I'm looking to get an MSX in February and want an Enterprise 64, but the prices of those are a little steep ATM. I included the disk drives because they are essentially a computer, having a CPU, PIA, ROM & RAM
That's what I can remember off the top of my head. Luckily I have an understanding wife, plus we moved to a much larger house recently so I have a large office/workshop/retro area, plus indoor storage that is dry and warm
I also have a bunch of modern add ons for many machines so that I can use modern SD storage for many of them. You can see some of the mods in my signature.

Re: The age of Aquarius
I'm buying a Toshiba HX-10, just need to wait until February for the funds as Christmas was a bit expensive
