:D

Hey, I know a deal when I see it.  The SX I got when the Salvation
Army near me closed.  It was $6 discounted to $3, no monitor or
keyboard.  (The AT keyboard I have is busted but in 100% working
order) ;)

Well, that would double the speed of my 486/133 (~~ P75)...

How much s&h? (better to find out by e-mail than on usenet?)  I might
take you up on the offer as soon as I can cough up enough for the s&h
which will most certainly be more than the difference between $10 and
what I have.  The more PCs, the merrier.  (Somehow, though, I still
don't think it'd be fast enough for MESS, but it'd be a killer Dapple
][ machine.) :D
