BUY IT. As long as it has at least one HD tray with mezz board, at least one
key, and the CPU board, you can repopulate it with off-the-shelf stuff.
Regular FPM Power Mac RAM works fine in it, plug an external SCSI CD-ROM
in the back, and any SCSI-1 or SCSI-2 HD in the drive bays. Stick Linux or
(better) NetBSD on it or ask for an AIX 4.1.4.1/4.1.5 CD (I'd copy mine for
you, but it's inaccessible until April).
