I think the Surplus Manager is still happy with me that I took the
DEC 4000-710 off her hands (I really only wanted the TSZ07, but
what DEC-head could resist a mini-class box with 192MB of RAM,
1 processor with a second one possible, 5 SCSI buses, disk and
tape for less than the cost of shipping the tape drive?)

I let her know that I'm interested in anything Digital. She's
done a good job of keeping an eye out for me. Unfortunately,
they don't get all that much DEC stuff; most of it left years
ago. I keep waiting for some really classic stuff to show up,
but not lately (I did get some 11/03s w/RX01s from these same guys
ten years ago for $10, and some PET 8032s for about the same).

They did have three SGI monitors today - two with BNC, one with
SGI 13W3 connectors in and out. The "little" ones were under
$25; I think the newer, bigger one was $35. One Mac 6100/66,
no disk. IBM Selectrics. Thin pickings today.
