  Over at Purdue Salvage, they have an RS/6000

  value, and is anyone interested?  
 It is aparently a PowerServer 550L, has 64M of ram (filled card), some
 sort of framebuffer card (TI DSP's on it and 3 mini-coax connectors stuck
 in a DE-9 or DA-15 connector shell, like a Sun video connector, but
 without the extra pins), builtin 10Base2 and AUI ethernet, SCSI, 3 hard
 drive, tape drive, floppy drive, and probably other things I'm fogetting
 to mention.

 One of the hard drives (which I have yet to determine the size of) was
 completely unhooked from the scsi bus and power, so it's probably either a
 spare or broken..

 Any ideas on where to get a bootable tape so I can reset root's password
 (haven't booted it yet, still gotta try that first.)
