[geeks] FTGH: Pioneer DRM-602X 6-CD changer

I have this six-disc CD changer by Pioneer which I do not expect to
have further use for - or, more precisely, the chance of future use is
small enough I don't consider it worth the space it takes to store it.

It's a SCSI device.  I hooked it up and it showed up as six drives at
ID 6, one at each LUN from 0 through 5, and accessing two of the drives
gave me the contents of the two discs I put in the magazine, so it
seems to work at least minimally.  (IIRC there's a switch which
controls the ID.)  The box trumpets it as "THE ONLY SIX-DISC
DOUBLE-SPEED CD-ROM CHANGER", which may give some idea of its age.
Here's what autoconfig printed for it:

probe(esp0:6:0): max sync rate 8.33Mb/s

scsipi_inqmatch: 2/5/1 <, , >
cd5 at scsibus0 targ 6 lun 5: <PIONEER, CD-ROM DRM-602X, 2902> SCSI2 5/cdrom removable

I have the box, interior packing foam, and one 6-disc magazine for it.
I don't think I have anything else that may have come with it (maybe a
rudimentary user's guide, not sure).  The box has a sticker on it
saying it includes a "PC SCSI Interface" and "SIX EXCITING CD-ROM
TITLES"; none of those are actually present any longer.

It's in /earth/northamerica/canada/ontario/ottawa.  The box is
moderately large, about 11 by 15 by 22 inches, and is somewhat beat-up
(scuffs, small tears) but basically intact.  Free to a good home.
Pick-up preferred; I could probably wrap another layer of paper around
this and ship it, but the bother factor is high enough it would take
some persuading.
