I don't know if he is under assured destruct. The boards I purchased from
him today were from a University Research Center (a supercomputer in their
lab) so that would not fall under it (I imagine). I do know he is willing to
sell me some super computers and some must have serial numbers removed... I
have no idea what the game is yet.. I've only known him for 4 hours. I do
know he will have his staff remove serial numbers if I purchase certain
super computers???
