11/16   Who donated to the Mark VI project? They can't all be donated by
        AMD and the Tertiary Disk Project can they? Also what happened to
        the old parts?
        \_ hey, now we'll be free from the selfrighteous "Alumni bought you a
           shiny new soda" bullshit
        \_ actually a complete system by AMD
           \_ Yes.  AMD gave us a system with 700MHz CPU, 18G disk, 768M DRAM.
              The TDA gave us "a lot" of 9G disks and boxes for them.
              Mark V is sitting around somewhere, essentially idle.  Everyone
              wants to take a break from it for now, failure-ridden POS
              that it is at the moment.  --PeterM
              \_ If it's such a POS then why not make it an nfs'd /tmp
                 directory or use it to store mail for mail spool hozers.
                 \_ Do I hear a volunteer?????  Cool.  It's likely we'll
                    need a new VP next semester.  Please feel free to run!
                    --PeterM
        \_ Where can I get old parts? I'm building a tiny system for my mom.
           \_ I got a large system for yermom right here.
