I would like to get a couple of the logicboards and power supplies with CPU's. I have a real nice like new Powerwave 150 in my collection and spare parts are always handy. I have a second PowerWave for parts but it has too many problems to really rely on. And I just found someone yesterday to take all the peecee junk out of my garage so I have room for more good stuff. -- Ron http://krowmagnum.4mg.com/ -- Power Computing is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and... 123Inkjets.com <http://lowendmac.com/ad/123inkjets.html> Support Low End Mac <http://lowendmac.com/lists/support.html> Power Computing list info: <http://lowendmac.com/power/list.html> --> AOL users, remove "mailto:"; Send list messages to: <mailto:[email protected]> To unsubscribe, email: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> For digest mode, email: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subscription questions: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> List archive: <http://www.mail-archive.com/powercomputing%40mail.maclaunch.com/> iPod Accessories for Less at 1-800-iPOD.COM Fast Delivery, Low Price, Good Deal www.1800ipod.com
