yes, I'd like to find someone that would like to get this dec alpha off my
hands! Someone thats used to this type of equipment and can make use of it.
I have no room for it! So I'm bringing it with me. If I can't sell it in the
next two weeks I'm going to donate it so I can write it off.

 

see ya
