Hello, we have a Sun 3/280 whose SMD controller has just died.
Thise machine currently has ~1.1G connected to it and we have about 3gig 
of old SMD disks that we require controllers to recycle.

`We' implies the University Computer Club, at the university of Western 
Australia...home of one of the first internet accessible Coke machines.
Unfortunately, the Coke machine talks to mackerel.ucc.gu.uwa.edu.au, this 
3/280 and until we can get him up again, the coke machine is dead-ish.

Something along the lines of a Xylogics 450/1 would be applicable... has 
anyone decommissioned any old VME Suns lately?

We would be happy to pay for them, don't get me wrong, but any donations 
of old Sun/DEC/IBM hardware {or new ones ;) } would be much appreciated 
and we would be happy to give you some recognition by having a link or 
acknoledgement to you/you site off the Coke machine's homepage, 
http://www.ucc.gu.uwa.edu.au/cokestuff/

Thanks for your time
