Packing suggestions (was Re: PDP11 Redux, or Behind-The-Scenes Bull)

Done. Getting the right size boxes is key as it allows you to minimize the use of bubble wrap and doesn't require any messy foam peanuts to fill empty spaces. New boxes are much stronger then used and tape sticks to them much better (you need less tape and bubble wrap with a new box). steve __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
