Tried Vicom Internet Gateway?

Trade, hopefully; otherwise, I'll try to come up
with a friendly price.

Dang, David spoke up first, and I'm not sure how many I have.
I'll inventory everything this weekend...

Clarksville, Indiana, the sunnier side of the Louisville KY metro area.

TAM is also on my want list; I am passing on a Lisa that's a stone's
throw away, because the guy won't wait two weeks for payment. OTOH,
he did say he might have another one soon...

I have an 840AV, but only one, and I think the motherboard
is flaky (Shreve Systems sells 840AV mobos for about $100).

The eventual goal is to pare down the pile I've got into
no more than one each of whatever I want to keep. But
right now that feels *so* much like work...
