These are 90's vintage servers?
Hi, I've had a few D's in the past (D390 IIRC). Fairly standard PA-RISC
machines built from girdirs and granite :)
Not the most exciting hardware but a good reliable machine for someone
learning HP-UX, whcih is mostly where I sold mine. Value wise not worth
much.
Cheers,

I hit a local recycler and they have a unit that looks like a phone booth
they will eventually turn into toasters. So I was wondering if it was worth
much to anyone in parts. To be honest it looked more impressive then it is
from a 1 minute spec search (bottom is a huge power
supply, middle is just
more HD storage, top had a DDS3 drive so it could not be
that old).
