I think we can consider it on-topic in light of the history of the people mentioned.

Had anyone heard what his announcement is ... ?
10:16 p.m.
Googling around, it appears it was troll bait and there was no "real"
announcement.

Free to good home, local pickup only (Chicago area), a
set of Lilith wood cabinets.
The innards are long gone, and they have a few scrapes and areas of sticker residue
but hey, where else are you going to get your hands on some Lilith cabinets, eh?
I'm
in Grayslake, but if you're anywhere even remotely near the Chicago area, let's
work
out a way to get them from me to you. duncan at ledgaming.com

Free to good home, a set of Lilith wood cabinets.
Pant, pant, pant.......
local pickup only (Chicago area),
Understandable, but nevertheless G****it
The innards are long gone,
And I happen to have
just enough spare parts to
make recreating a Lilith a distinct possibility.
And as a reminder, interested parties can download Emulith, my Lilith
emulator here :

I picked these up last week. Here are some pics I took today:
http://picasaweb.google.com/Silent700/ETHLilithCase#
I know nothing of the Lilith save for what Wikipedia and Google told
me last week, so I can't say whether these are complete, correct,
modded or what. From the pics I've found there were a number of
different Lilith cases, but the ones that match these most closely
suggest this is one complete enclosure plus a second base and lid.
The lid fits to whatever ought to below it with pegs and there are no
pegs in the second base.
The party I picked them up from was using them to store his kids'
toys. Despite this they are in pretty good shape. He said he got
them from the U of Virginia - I wonder what happened to the guts :(
Not sure what I will do with them yet. It's very nice wood but I am
pretty against modding something so rare. I will probably facilitate
their return home to .ch

I have some Eve workstations and some spare Eve guts. Eve is the
successor to Lilith. I emailed the guy about taking custody of them,
but you beat me to it :-).
