Tags and previous owners (was RE: [rescue] What do you guys think about this 4D/35)

[Loomis, Rip]

The best "previous owner" I've found was for
my U1/170E...when I called into Sun to do the
field change to swap the crappy heatsink/fan
for the bigass heatsink, the conversation with
the FE revealed that the previous listed
location was...the CIA.  Not that surprising,
since I picked it up used just outside the DC
beltway and the harddisk was not the original
one... 

My favorite tag was the "Property of Compaq CAE"
tag on the GDM-1962 monitor...implying that
Compaq used to use Sun boxen for some CAE
task (motherboard layout?).

Any other good ones?

Or the University of Tennesee property and network ID tags on all my
macintosh stuff :)
