Well, I actually got these through a guy who got them from who-knows-where.
 I can check with him, but I'm figuring worse case scenario.

Tried all the quick, logical passwords I could think of.  At work, we
normally set these up with things like "train" or "trainer" for passwords.
If this was actually the server, they'd probably have a less obvious password.

I have one totally dead one, two with the ? floppy displayed at startup.
The rest seem to boot up okay.  They've pulled the RAM out of them, so I'll
need to put in more RAM before I hand them out.  Couple have 1GB hard
drives, which is nice.  They make great CD players *grin*!

Yep, I'll take a look at that next.  I have an external drive I could use
to set up a ghost image for these machines.  That's the plan anyway.  I'm
pulling in the 7.5.3 disks today and will probably take it from there.
Would be nice to see what's on that drive, but reformatting it will be okay
too.

Thanks for the advice.
