 Dauphin is a small city in central Manitoba with a small community
college near where I am planning on retiring to in some 2 1/2 years -with
my collection.(yes Virginia they do have an ISPor a satellite feed)
 Podunck Junctions not so far. I could lend him some spare DEC RX50
floppies if needed. Hey a vintage computer mecca in the heartland.
 And who knows what may be hiding out there after the 0-bay gleaners
have gutted the silicon valley trove.
