Computer donations

Trent,
Unless I am mistaken, either GCC or the MCCD is having an auction soon.
(I believe this coming weekend.) There are a number of boxen in the '486
and pentium catagory that should be available to you if you put in a
request for them directly. (Since you would be wanting them for 'school
purposes'.)

I can only assume that they have little use for any more of them since
they are in the process of getting rid of some.
