  ... well, sort of.   It's time to clean out the storage place, and as a
result I have a lot of DEC stuff that I need to make "go away".   Most of it
is just spare parts and those I'm willing to just give away to the first
person who picks them up in Milpitas CA USA.   Most of this stuff is big and
heavy and I absolutely am not willing to ship any of it - sorry.   I realize
that most of HECnet is not local and so it's probably a waste of your time,
but I thought I'd share the list just in case I have that one single item
that somebody can't live without.   It'd be a shame to see it go to the
recyclers if that's the case.

  There are a few complete systems and peripherals at the end of the list
(e.g. 9 track drives) that I'd rather trade for something I can use.   I
don't really want money for any of it, and in a pinch I could probably be
persuaded to give that away too.   And just in case you have any doubts as to
what I can use, send me an email and I'll send you a wish list :-)
