I got the system I mentioned from a used computer store, not from some rube.
I thought it was worth mentioning because of that. Often used stores want
utterly unrealistic prices for old stuff, like a pawn shop here in Biloxi
wanting $400 for an 800K drive SE with a really bad sunburn.

I thought I saw someone saying here back a time that Sun had sold out of new
//e's.

Best job I ever did of taking someone would have to be when I got a new-
in-the-box video overlay card for $25
