Router Simulator

I have 3 spare 2514s, and a 2511 and a 1900 series switch that are sitting
on my shelf now (i use 2600s to study and as my edge router). if anyone
would like me to set up a lab or borrow or buy one off me that would be
fine. I also have a cisco login that gets me any ios. just passed my ccie
written.
