I'll try to find who made them/where I saw them. -----Original Message----- From: Mark Smith [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Wednesday, July 17, 2002 8:11 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: KITHRUP:RE: [Declude.JunkMail] HELO:Declude Console Sorry for the OT conversation :) I could think of a number of corporate helpdesks that would purchase a few of these units. Just think of the money that they would save on travel costs. Ship this unit to the site (even if it had a whole PC Attached to it). Rebuild the WHOLE server (from ground up) and all you would need is a guy to put floppies/CD's in the drives. > -----Original Message----- > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] On Behalf Of Madscientist > Sent: Wednesday, July 17, 2002 8:59 AM > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Subject: RE: KITHRUP:RE: [Declude.JunkMail] HELO:Declude Console > > > We've worked on that beast in the lab - it's a side project. > Haven't seen one out on the street - maybe it's out there somewhere. > > The trouble is cost & bandwidth.
