There is some sort of VAX on E-bay that I've never seen before. I'm
wondering if it is something without the skins or one I never heard of. The
URL is
<http://cgi.ebay.com/aw-cgi/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=388134861>
It looks like it has several S-box type chassis at least three tape drives
etc. All for the low low price of $1000 :-)

It's been relisted.... I forget what it was before! WAIT A MINUTE!!! I
just looked it up! It WAS listed at $650! What kind of an idiot.... If
you don't get bids at $650, why bump it up to $1000!!!
I was kind of wondering what it was myself, it looks like there might be
something like 4 systems there, but where are the disks? Or is it some
kind of communications equipment...

Looks like this is a VAXft fault tolerant unit. It is a rather uncommon
unit.
