I thought you did and just decided it was too new. That's system that the club should have.
If anybody has one to donate...
As a matter of fact, I do have a NeXT station that I can donate. In pristine condition. It was given to me by the owner of a business that my brother worked for. They bought it for a project, never used it, and it sat. They gave it to me as a "thank you" for helping them with another project. It has the 27" monitor, black NeXT mouse, black cube, manuals -- it works great. I loaned it to a college intern who worked for me and he used it in his dorm room for a year. This thing has been sitting in my storage locker for years. I had anticipated playing with it myself but that hasn't happened and as of now I was trying to figure out what to do with it. Now that MARCH has a substantial amount of space to work with it appears that I have the solution. I still have that IBM S/38 washing-machine sized 3370 disk drive that I promised to MARCH. I need to figure out how to get that down there too. The guy who has given me space in his garage would certainly be delighted to reclaim that space. To be honest, I have any number of machines that I collected that are doing me absolutely no good that I'm going to clear out. I'll have to make a point of making a list and seeing what might be interesting to others. Barry
