Yeah? What burden? I could probably dig up some HDs (though they're old
and may not be reliable), a NIC or two, maybe a sound card, almost certainly
a DVD-ROM. I'm more than happy to toss these in a box with some (reused)
foam peanuts and ship it (cheap who knows when it gets there mode) to
whoever wants to take responsibility for this box.
