Goo Gone is good. Be careful with Goof Off, as it is a paint remover (with
petroleum-based solvents). It can disolve some plastics.
Peanut butter (creamy :) ) or vegetable oil will often work to remove fresh
adhesive residue.

Try "Goo Gone" or "Goof Off".

got pretty much everything except what you were after. I've been bidding
on it myself. In fact I've gone as far as a hundred bucks. If I'm bidding
against anyone on the list maybe we can come to some co-purchase
agreement before my media lust gets the better of my fiduciary
responsibility. I already have quite a lot of it.

I've got an old P70 (IBM MCA luggable w/ plasma display) with a '386DX20
that I'm playing around with. Does anyone know if there's a drop-in
replacement for the '386DX? I'm pretty constrained space-wise, no room for
an interposer and barely room for a heatsink should one prove necessary.
I'm not aiming for a fire-breathing monster, just more geek points when I
boot AIX-PS/2 and Solaris-mca 2.6 on it.
Thanks!

ha ha - yeah, they were a bit big. Glad this browser's got a zoom feature.
seems to be a common mistake people make when they first get a digital camera -
I've seen a similar thing with scanners, where people insist on scanning a
whole A4 page and sending that around for the sake of the tiny photo up in one
corner.
You learn by experience though I guess, and as someone else said it's nice to
have the big images but some sort of warning and smaller thumbnail versions
would have been nice.
cheers
Jules

Hi all,

confirmation of their earlier offer, if you were interested and have not
received an email from me, please sen me one quick because I'll be closing

Thank you for your attention

Hi, guys.
I picked up an Everex Step Megacube yesterday, and fulfilled a
10-year-old, forgotten lust. I wanted one of these REALLY BADLY when they
were new.
Anyway, I need the ECU (EISA configuration utility) for this guy, or at
the very least the .CFG for the motherboard.
If somebody has it and could email me a copy (pkzip or somesuch is fine) I
would be eternally grateful.
Thanks!
ok

I thought I'd never hear that company's name again. I've been looking
feverishly, for about 3 years, for a copy of Spectrum Holobyte's "Blockout!"
The base game is a series of walls the player needs to take down by grouping
3 or more like blocks or symbols. It also contains bombs, missiles, and
other cute destructive devices. It was a simple game, made to run in DOS,
and I'd (or my wife would!) just about die for a copy of it. Ours died when
my DOS-based BBS fried back in '97...
Cheers...
