Didn't a post come through here just earlier today about someone
offering a pdp-8/f power supply for $30?

I'm going to document all that we used... since I'm taking chemistry,
it may just end up looking like a lab report... (abstract, apparatus
used, procedures, actual write-up)...

At this point I'd like to heartilly recommend Budget Rentals. They
do have lift-gate trucks... the one I got was 15' with 7' inside
vertical dimension. The truck is 11' total height, it handled really
well, and the 90 mile move was about $65 itself. Unfortunately, since
the budget place wasn't open today, I had to rent yesterday, for two
days, so the total price will be higher.
