Hello!

Just let us know with this decent list of stuff. :) I was looking
for Model 70 that has 25mhz cached 386 CPU.
(my long time wish and reputated to be fastest PC of its time) that
all. And, compaq stuff?

Snip! Impressively partial list of stuff...

I would agree that is where we would need to split up all the
hardware and mail to each who wants specific stuff.
