[aclug-L] Re: Boeing Surplus has P I - 133 -16meg for 20.00 !

[Jonathan Hall <jonhall@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I think the point of the Boeing Surplus post was that you could get
used barebones SYSTEMS for very cheap.

I don't think anyone would argue that there are other better places for new
"quality" hardware.

Personally, I've not been impressed with McGlen Micro's prices... and they
charge a lot for shipping.  But... I have bought a few things from them.

Floppy disk tip #4: Never insert a diskette into the drive upside down.  The
data can fall off the surface of the disk and jam the intricate mechanics of
the drive.
