John,
Microfiche viewers are out-of-date techonolgy-wise, so a lot of large
firms and council offices will be throwing them away, or at least
flogging them off cheap.
Local council offices often have sales once a quarter to get rid of
old equipment and furniture - ring them up.
My local Gas Board offices threw about 100 fiche viewers in the skip!
When searching for a viewer, get one with dual magnification - the
IGI fiche are difficult to read on low mag.
Also, try and grab some spare bulbs as well - although you can
probably get them from a camera shop, as they're the same as in some
projectors.
Cheers,
Colin
