[SunHELP] Rails compatible with T1000

[Jerry Kemp]

That was me!!!!   :)

Strangely enough, it took a lot of searching.  I finally found a set of
rails from Andover.  I have put the relevant items from the invoice
pasted to the bottom of this email.  Hope this is of some help.

FWIW, I have found the expensive thing on the T1000 is the power supply.
 Mine died a few months after acquiring the it.

I was unable to locate anyone to repair my existing PS.  I finally was
able to locate a spare from an otherwise dead system for about half of
what I paid for the system.  These systems (T1000) price wise continue
to drop, as all used equipment does.  If my power supply were to die at
this point (again), I speculate that it might just be cheaper to grab a
replacement T1000 system from eBay or similar, vs trying to find
replacement parts.

Hope this helps,  let me know if you need more information.
