I've got a bunch of stuff basically taking up room in the house. I'd like
to trade part or all of it for something interesting, but if you just want
to plunk down cash for an item, I won't complain. :) I'll probably go for the
best reasonable offer on anything you want, if no trades are offered.

Please note that I'm hoping to deal in the Boulder area, if possible.

Things I'm interested in:
	a Sun 3, hopefully 60 or 80, but I have no delusions as to the value
		of these goods -- any Sun would be worth a look;
	4M 1x9 70ns SIMMs;
	an IDE hard drive;
	a 387-40 coprocessor;
	a fast modem -- v.32[bis] preferably or maybe PEP.

What I've got:

--- one IBM RT model 125, 16M Enhanced ECC Memory, 114M disk on an Enhanced
	ESDI adapter, 5.25" floppy drive, 2 RS-232 serial ports and an RS-422
	multiport adapter, and a couple of other cards, probably for a tape drive.
	It has a green monochrome console. It runs AIX 2.2.1, has the OS disks,
	with tons of original manuals. About the same performance as a slow 386,
	I believe. AIX 2.2.1 isn't as bad as you may have heard -- it's full
	multiuser UNIX, including UUCP, sendmail, basic TCP/IP utilities, the C
	development environment, in short all the basics to make this a good
	learning/hacking/BBS type system. Just in case there's an interested party
	who *doesn't* know, IBM no longer even admits it made these systems --
	your support is limited to a few diehards in comp.sys.ibm.pc.rt. :)

--- OS/2 2.0 & "OS/2 2.0 Lan Server -- Entry"

	All I know about these two is that you'd better have 8M of RAM to run
	OS/2 2.0 well, and the other has something to do with networking.... 

--- Turbo Pascal for Windows: be the last on your block to program Windows.

--- Interactive UNIX 2.0.2: a plain vanilla System V 3.2 UNIX, with unlimited
	user license, a C development set, and some manuals, but nothing beyond
	what you need to know to run it. Definitely for someone with Interactive
	experience, who wants a cheap UNIX setup at home.

I can be reached as john@clinicom.com, or call 443-9660 during the day,
258-3916 in the evenings.
