[SunRescue] SparcClassics, 5s and 10s

[Harry Regan]

Hey, Gang--

I am looking for several old Sparcs-- preferably the smaller sun4m
architecture boxes.  I'd also prefer them ultra cheap and not necessarily
running.  Please give me a shout if you've got any you want to part with.  I'm
in the Washinton, D.C. suburbs.
