How many computers?

Every so often, someone asks how many computers I have, and I always find
it hard to give a straight answer. It depends whether you count half a
dozen 68000 boards as 1 + spares, or 6 -- I only have two keyboards and one
PSU rigged up for them -- or none, since I haven't got the orignal case or
PSU. Or the PDP-11s; I have several spare CPUs and other boards, but only
a few cabinets.

This is roughly what's running/runnable:

Acorn Archimedes A440, serial no 614 + Arm3 processor a a lot of extras
Acorn Archimedes A310, serial no 2.
BBC Microcomputer Model B (about 2.5 of these)
