By the same token, the parts houses have to know we can't pay typical full price that corporations/military can. We must be willing to pay something above scrap value, of course.

Also, the dealers in this gear disappear over time if they can't stay
in business. I bought some HP cables from 360 Technologies
(360tech.com) last year and now they are gone. Anyone know what
happened to whatever was left of their stock? Is Monterey Bay
Communications (www.montbay.com) still in business or have they been
gone for a while? I think I sent them an email inquiry a few months
back and never got a response. Any other dealers with HP 1000 gear
that are still in business?
