The auctions are like anything else...
Some good deals...some shit.
How old of ALphaServers? Here in Boston at the MIT Flea market I saw some
guy who (from coversation I figured) once worked for digital...he was selling
some old Alphaservers for $50/ea with VMS loaded on
I goto www.onsale.com if I goto any of them....
I tend to find packs of ethernet cards are good deals. I have had no problems
with any of the SVEC cards I got there...get a nice 6 pack or 2...
