Well . . . what I meant was the monitors. That's
what he's asking $75 for
and without the Appollo stations they're of little use, being fixed
frequency types. If he asked $25 for them they'd still be difficult to
move.

Hell, I'd like to have an HP-UX box and so would one of my friends.
The main problem is before I drop $$$ sight unseen I need to have
a valid hardware configuration (which most scrappers can't give).

Three things never anger: First, the one who runs your DEC,
The one who does Field Service and the one who signs your check.
