I'm cleaning out old hardware to make space, here's the more interesting
pieces, if anyone wants them please reply or call my cell 797-1617:
MicroVAX 3800 (makes a great bedside table)

Sparq portable 1GB-disk drive with 3 disks
Backer32 (parallel port video 'modem', 4GB on VHS tape)
IBM Token Ring Concentrator
3x new Fujitsu fiber cables, 61meter, 2 fibers, ST-ST connectors
Laboratory tube PSU, variable 200-325V 0.1A
Ribbon cable in foil wrap, approx. 50 wires, 200ft?
Konika-Minolta Magicolor 330, huge colour laser printer, needs toner/work
Eurologic 4-drive SCSI/SAS array with redundact PSUs, serial mgmt
Eurologic Fiberchannel 7x 73GB (1 HD bad) RAID array with redundant
PSUs, fans
A few 2.4ghz wifi dishes, 19-24dbi
I'm bringing a bunch of 300-800mhz PCs, 10mbit hubs, etc. to recycling
places.

I may be interested in the wifi dishes. Would they be suitable for
connecting to my d-link (N) router? I realise they are for point to
point transmission/reception. Other than that, what are their capabilities?
I'll forward your original message to another geek friend who is a bit
of a collector.
Later
Mike

I'm interested in the wifi dishes as well.

I would like an old Alpha capable of running OpenVMS. Just to keep my skills
up. I bid on a contract a few years ago to replace an old VAX with a new
model system; didn't get it simply because I wasn't American. But I doubt
they would find anyone with 1989 certification for VMS. The MicroVAX is
pre-Alpha (I remember administering a 3000 series), but can your Digital
Server run OpenVMS? I have a CD with VMS Alpha 7.2-2 OS binaries.
As for old PCs, I volunteer with Mike Pfaiffer at a computer lending
library. They could use any P4 PCs.
By the way, what is a "Laboratory tube PSU, variable 200-325V 0.1A"?
Rob Dyck

Rob: will speak with you later today
Mike/Sean: will check the number of dishes and condition and let you know
Mark: I don't have many ATX power supplies without the leaky-capacitor
issues
(or that are a quality brand). I'm about to recycle pretty complete
< P4 systems;
since you can buy used P4s today for ~100$ I don't think it's worth
the time
to deal with anything less. If you are available right away I can
arrange for
you to come here and pick what you want.
Also have the following:
-metal box with ~5u rack inside
-2U 8-outlet power switch with ethernet remote control
-4x cisco 2500 routers
-HP Advancestack 2000 switch, redundant PSU, 12x 10mbit, 2x 100mbit, 4x
100VG
-Heathkit 10-4015 Oscilloscope, 10mhz?

Note it's an older model, don't think it has HTTP, likely only telnet
or SNMP.
I got it from someone on this list. Are you close to St.B right now?
