6/14    I have old computer hardwares that I am getting rid of before my move.
        1. ASUS A7V mobo with K6 processor around 733MHz
        2. Intel desktop mobo with P3 833MHz
        3. Tyan S2500 mobo with 2x P3 ~800-1GHz cpus
        4. Cyrix 586 133MHz system
        It's free for whoever wants it and can pick it up on campus.  They
        are mounted on the case, and you must take the whole combo (mobo, case
        cpu)  #1 has a working power supply as well.  #3 requires registered
        ECC RAM, and I have 2x512MB that'll be included as well.  #1 and #2
        should be working, but no guarantee.  #3 and #4 were working when
        last turned off.  Anything
        not picked up by Friday will go to ACCRC.  Email johndkim.

3/29    A friend wants a PC (no mac). She doesn't want Dell. Is there a
        good place that can custom build for you (SSD, large RAM, cheap video
        card--no game)?
        \_ As a side note: back in my Cal days more than two decades ago when
           having a 387SX made me the only person with floating-point hardware,
           most machines were custom built.

8/5     Why is Mac OS 10.6 $29 and 10.5.6 $129? Is it a typo?
        \_ $29 for existing users.
           \_ it doens't even support ppc does it.
              \_ who cares about ppc anymore? Everything is Intel based
                 \_ I have a PPC mini at home that I use.
                 \_ I have a quad core G5 ppc.

12/4    A question to you old crufy alumni: So lately we've suggested
        VMs, and been asked why it's necessary. We've suggested top-of-the-line
        hardware and been told we don't need that much power. So I'd like to
        ask -- what exactly do you think the CSUA is supposed to _be_?
