Dear Gentlemen-- Okay, here is an offering for your flea market. I think I fit your description, completely. I represent a small reseller company located here in Memphis, Tennessee. We also do extensive refurbishment of IT equipment for several local businesses. One of our clients has offered us the following product: Description of product Network Computing Device model HMX diskless workstation model # 9101361 NCD Monitor model # 19C41487-80 specification # S-NW03 Standard layout keyboard RT-101 part #060002 Standard serial port mouse part # 9F-NCD LT402C00487 These workstations were for a Unix-based system running X-Windows but they could be used in any Unix environment Of the 3000 workstations, 1000 have 8 meg of RAM, the remaining 2000 have 16 meg of RAM Some number, unknown, of the workstations have 19 inch monitors. There will be no price difference for the 19 inch monitors as we have no way of knowing or guaranteeing that the 10 we have already received are typical or unique. Our target price is $500.00 FOB Memphis for the 8 meg workstations and $550.00 for the 16 meg workstations. The machines are Y2K compliant but they don't have an internal clock/calendar, anyway, so the point is irrelevant, but there it is. We have documentary legal proof of ownership. The machines are in very good to excellent condition. Here is the URL for the magazine article touting this and several other X-window platforms, the NCD model basically won the contest. According to the Permissions legal statements, you can refer to the article and publish the URL without getting the written permissions. Written permissions are free if you need them. HTTP://www.zdnet.com/pcmag/issues/1605/pcmg0014.htm We are interested in all reasonable offers. Our business is quite small but we do encounter opportunities like this one every so often. As Y2K continues to jitter the IT market, we expect more such items to fall our way. Good Luck and Thanks for any help you can provide. Sincerely David R.
