AAAAAARRRRGHH!!!!!!

I've had a DEC Pro/Rainbow/DECmateII stand for a year or so (NZ$50 from
a govt. department that was chucking out loads of DEC gear).  It has both
male and female power sockets and a kick switch.  I always assumed it was
to turn the monitor on or off or something (the stand is designed for a
VR241).  I always considered this a daft idea, and never used it.

I just read your message, thought "Hmmmm?", plugged the thing in, and
kicked the switch.  It *is* a motorised stand!  Gee.  Learn something
new every day....

Still, I'll probably disconnect it -- I'll just fiddle with it now.... 8-)
