Re: ebay model 150 auction

[s.arntsen@xxxxxxxxx]

I recently sold my 150 that I used for Y2K conversions
for 5k.  It is a great box except for the DASD (16gig)
limitiations.  I was running a full blown BPCS system on
it without any problems.  I also used it as a Web
server, DNS server and a proxy server.
