I see stacks of these at hamfests for $5 each, and they usually give them
away at the end of the day. If he can't find one, he's not trying very
hard.

Subject: Calling PS2 owners: machine needed (in Texas?)
Folks with plenty of PS2 parts, etc. to spare,
SwRI sent around the following notice this afternoon:
2. Old Computers/ Parts Needed
Division 08 has a specific application where an old personal computer
system
must be kept operational for a few more years. Can
anyone make available
parts (hard drives, floppy drives, etc) or complete computers of the IBM
PS2, Model 30, 286 type? Please contact Brian Koehler at ext. 3588 or
e-mail
(mail to: BKoehler(a)swri.org ). Payment can be arranged
as needed.
This isn't exactly a hobby use, but it does concern on-topic
machines; apologies in advance if this kind of post is not welcome here.
Full phone number is (210)-522-3588 for Brian, or (210)-522-6025 for me if
you want to check with me first, or email me at mtapley(a)swri.edu.
SwRI is in San Antonio, Texas, and I assume that that's where the
machine is needed - will update if that's not true.
