Oh man... that Auspex would be nice... I remember going to a Sun User
Group meeting in LA and meeting the rep from Auspex... Adobe used to
use a ton of their boxes.
Have you had any offers for the Tadpole?

I have a ton of classic and not-so-classic computers

to find new homes for. Since I don't have the time or money to ship
any of this, you need to be willing to pick up in the Seattle, WA
area. Most of this stuff at least powered up the last time I was able
to get to it, although there are likely some TLC issues on most or all
of them that need to be attended to such as missing RAM or hard
drives. One of the C-64s doesn't power up and a couple of the color
NCD terminals don't have monitors or have monitors that are futzing,
but all of the base units works.
Some of this stuff I'm willing to let go for free, some of it I'd like
to see at least $5 for. And there are a couple of items (the Auspex,
the Sun Ultra 1 and disk pack, the Apple IIgs, the Cisco router) I
would like to get a bit more than that from. Especially the Auspex and
the Cisco router.
Please e-mail me with what you're interested in, how much you'd be
willing to pay, and what your schedule is like. I don't usually have
any time during business hours to try to meet people places, unless
it's at my home in Monroe on one of the days I'm working from home.
Evenings and weekends are best bet if you're not willing to drive to
Monroe. If I have to drive a load of equipment somewhere, I'm probably
going to want to charge enough for it to make it worth my while.
On with the list!

scrapped. True classic computing lovers only need apply.
