If you are not in a T & E area try their website (I think it's tradeandexchange.co.nz)- you might find something comes up near you. Also if you are in Auckland you could try one of the computer Flea marts - they sell 2nd hand software.	Guest (0)

This is just one site where you can get stuff, there are others if you try a Google search. www.valiant-it.co.uk You will need a supply of floppys to make up the install disks. Have fun.	Guest (0)
