Hello everybody,
along with Mr. Hans Pufal, I was among those interested in Pete Turnbull's
recent offer of network/terminal server equipment. However, the stuff needs
to disappear fairly quickly from where it is now - i.e. a definitive
arrangement has to be made until 23rd of July and pickup would have to take
place before the end of the month.
And here the fun begins: I have no chance to go abroad and get it in time as
I'll be doing my 2nd Term Electrical Engineering testpapers in late
July/early August. Just about no way around that.
Pete and I have worked out that I should ask here if anybody from the UK
(preferably near York) would go on holiday on the Continent this summer
(passing through Southern Germany), or vice versa, and could be persuaded to
collect and drop off the equipment in question. In return I offer
lunch/dinner, drinks and if wanted a financial contribution for fuel.
>From what it looks like by now, the cargo will be the following:
(most certainly one each, max. two)
Emulex P4000 terminal server w/ bits and pieces/cables)
Connection panel for above (rackmount 2U high)
3Com Linkbuilder FMS II 24-port hub (rackmount 1U high)
3Com SuperStack II PS 40 24-port hub (rackmount 1U high)
(small stuff)
assorted plugins for above hubs
AUI/10baseT-Microtransceivers
(perhaps)
one terminal DEC VT220, 420, or 510.
To Mr. Hans Pufal: I've been told that you are already making a transport
arrangement for the stuff you want. If nobody hits my area closer
(Nuremberg, southern Germany) it has been suggested that I ask if you could
have the additional material transported to France, which is at least a bit
nearer for me to come by and pick it up later this summer.
Please CC any answers to Peter <pete_at_dunnington.u-net.com> as well; I don't
know if it's useful to answer on-list, I'd rather not.
Thanks in advance
