All sounds good to me,  while i requested items for centre peace, if we
can re-distribute working kit in general to give it extra life for few
years than that would be a good thing,   So if some make it to paignton
great, if it ends up else where then again that is good.   Its better
than going to recycling centres to be broken up when it works,  and can
be used to the benefit of people.

Monitors + vga input + htmi to vga converts are great for raspberry pi's
and other single board computers.
