[rescue] Cheap HP J5000 systems

[Gavin Hubbard]

Hi Lads

I don't know how I ended up on their mailing list, but a company called Champ Systems (based in Oregon) is selling used HP J5000 workstations (dual 440MHz PA8500, 512MB, 9GB) for 595USD. I don't know if they have any graphics options installed, but I doubt it at that price. According to their email they have 93 machines in stock.

This is not a deal-of-the-year price but it is still pretty good if you're looking for a half-decent HP-UX workstation. For comparison purposes, a J5000 is fairly similar to a Sun E250.

The contact details for this deal are tj at champsystems.net or 800-536-1966 Ext. 310

Regards,

Gavin
