[NBLUG/talk] Server for sale - cheap!

[Walter Hansen]

If it's still avaialable I'd happily pay $20 for that and pick it up
although I'm not sure where San Anselmo is. My current server is a PPro166
although it might be tricky getting another power supply for it. I wonder
if I could rig soemthing.
