To add to leaknoils point, another route is to check out O2 systems on ebay,
ask for a pic of the rear of the machine.

Intersting.. I bought a few
SGI things through here, but they were
probably both on a list of other stuff.
I understand.

You make a good, valid, and interesting point. There are
probably a
bunch of them just sitting in boxes with no one using them.
Hopefully
someone can rescue them. :)  I'll try nekochan if no one else here
has
anything in the next day or so.

Thanks.
