[rescue] Ohhhhh what does this button do?

[Michael A. Turner]

	Might be willing to barter, but first let me check the systems that
I brought down with this, it may be possible that I have the card and don't
know it. Plus I gotta dig in the cable box and see if the cable turns up.
This is from going up to see a friend who's bussiness cleaned out their NOC.
Gave me a bunch of stuff and I am just starting to go through it now. Got an
ultra 1 and a sparc 4 and an extra IPC with a bad nvram so I am happy with
it all so far, the big box of cables (moving box size) is being a bit of a
bitch as I am trying to unwrap them, that's where I foudn this item at.

Oooohhhhhh, been looking for one of those. I have a card and no
box/cable. Either is useless without the other, and together they are as
rare as a chastity belt in a bordello.

Barter?
