I hear you, and I recommend that Paul say "yes" to your generous offer.
Much as I'd love to say "yes" on his behalf, I think my hands are tied
because the 2230's currently SVLUG's property and not mine.

(Also, to clarify, I figure the cable and drive sleds will turn up.  I
was just trying to be up-front with people about what parts I took
custody of, and what wasn't there -- in case questions came up later.)

Yes, those are in there.

I agree!

Cool!
