Subject: Tell your friends: Free hardware
i have a bunch of free sun, sgi, cisco, and other gear
that i need to get
rid of. you have to come get it. i'm not going to reserve anything, you
show up here first, you get to take whatever you want. bring a truck --
hell, bring two! i am in petaluma, california, 70 minutes north of san
fran, in sonoma county. i'm home in the evenings. next sunday, anything
that is left is going to the dump, so please, PLEASE come and take this
stuff away.
* one sgi 20" monitor, granite, with cable and remote, works perfectly. i
was using it on my indigo. i am keeping my indigo boxed up for use later,
but can't really see keeping this giant monitor around.
* one same as above with a little blur in one of the corners. i don't
know which of the two monitors it is (i am dumb and didn't mark the bad
one) and i don't have an sgi readily available to test it. come and take
your chances, or just grab both. please?
* one sun 16" monitor with cable. had it on my ultra2. works fine. a
little small by today's standards, and just a tad on the dim side, works
great.
* sun a1000 disk array. with three trays, a gang of 2gb disks in sleds,
some extra controller parts, some cables, and whatever else i can come up
with. it powers up. lots of drives spin and it sounds cool. that's all
i know.
* a bunch of SPARC stuff. keyboards, mice, whatever. I have a SPARCcard
somewhere. I'm not sure if it works, but it sure looks cool. ome and
get it and hang it in your cube. you boss will give you a raise for being
such a geek.
* some token ring and fddi stuff. concentrators and cables and nics and
what not.
* whatever ethernet stuff i can find (little netgear type hubs, swithces,
blah blah)
i have a whole closet full of stuff that i am cleaning out so i may post a
follow up to this message if i find more big stuff. otherwise basically
you can expect to find a large pile of crap sitting in the middle of my
living room, and you and some pals can come and get whatever you want.
the more you take the happier you'll be, i promise. if you come and take
_all_ of it, you will be destined to live a long life, and beautiful women
will want to be with you.
its all free, but if you feel compelled to give me something in return, i
am looking for reloading equipment and 9mm and .40 S&W ammo. beer is
always good, too.
yay!
email me at jmw _at_ panix _dot_ com to arrange for you to come up here.
if you don't live in the bay area but know someone who does, send this to
them, ok?
thanks.
