I disagree, Jeffery. I don't know how large a drive mounting rack for an
IBM Server PC 500 is, but I can tell you I shipped an ATX motherboard to a
friend of mine, and just based on weight and volume, it cost be $15. And
that was the cheapest shipping method there was, across USPS, UPS, DHL, and
Fedex. It's getting disgisting what's costing to ship anything.

No.
