Hello all,

(I suppose this could be one answer to the starter Sun thread... ;')

Well, I manaage to convice the boss^h^h^h^hwife that I really do need a
nice shiny new Sun Blade 100. The problem is that I have promised to
dispose of the rest of the collection as a result. So, I'd like to post
a test balloon here and see if there is any interest or if I should just
e-bay the mess.

I will have available:

1) IPX w/ PowerUP, 64mb, 4gb and SunPC DX. 
2) External Sun CDROM in411 case
3) External case with 1 gb SCSI-1 drive in it.
4) External case with HP DDS1 4mm DAT drive.
5) Mac SE/30 8mb ram, no HD (was using #3 when I got it.) I have a PDS 
ethernet card for it that I never got around to cracking the case to
install. 
6) HP Jetdirect EX Plus network printer box.

The IPX is actually a pretty decent machine with the PowerUP in it. It
still is a coffe break to start Star Office, but you can actually write
a letter in it without it dying. Use Open Windows instead of CDE and
it's a nice starter machine, I think. If Sun hadn't come out with the
Blade, well ... I had planned to keep it for several more years. (I'm at
a year and a half with little miss "unknown." (DHCP works great, but
host names are not a trifle.))

I really don't have a clue as to worth now that the Blade is out. I'll
probably accept fairly low amounts if the buyer picks up shipping.
Trades are always good too - I do have a 3/80 in the process of
resurecting that I intend to keep (She and I have not discussed that
machine yet... ) I'll be ordering the Blade next Friday and won't want
any of this gone till after that arrives, so we'll just have to see
what's up. 

William
