*Sigh*
So we have another bunch of machines that will never run again, just
because someone figured he could make more money by selling them off in
pieces.
Oh well, since we're at it: does anyone have 64MB or 16MB boards for an
86x0 machine? I'd sure love some.
Nono, you got that message wrong. Joe Moir was in the parts reselling
business and he didn't have too bad prices and it does come in handy
if you just need a few boards replaced. Anyway, he had now been selling
off 3 big machines, which I think is nice (although it gets me worried
he might leave the business.) If you can find out who this "rtlacy" guy is
-- he must be one of us,
as he's been collecting a bunch of DEC parts -- then you could ask him
for the 8650 RAM boards. Well, now that I think about it, he could
also be a DEC reseller with some local market (he hasn't been selling
parts on ebay, largely a buyer's profile.
I very seldom visit eBay, since I think it's in general a bad place for
keeping hardware running.
Just makes me depressed looking at that site.
