I just passed on the optical mouse and some keyboards
for the Sun's.
Passing on the optical mice or keyboards (type 3 or 4) is no great shakes.
However...
Passing on Sun optical mouse pads for type 3 or 4 mice is a crime
punishable by death. They are unique _two_ color pads (the horizontal
stripes are a different color from the verticle ones) that Sun does not
make anymore (contrary to Sun Direct's sales people, the pads they sell
are for the normal type 5 mice).
In short, the things are getting quite rare.
I will
be going back next Saturday to pick up some other things I will see if they
still have them. You will need a shoebox (has the HD) to really do anything
other then run the build in diagnostic. I get back to you
You can boot the thing off a network - no local disk required.
