Hmm. It had a badge on the front saying RC3260. ANd I've spent all afternoon
looking up RC3260 stuff on the web (of which there is little) and it seems
to be a valid model number. It's an R3000 based machine. I don't know much
more than that. The teacher said that it is supposed to be able to run
Windows (NT I assume) and Unix (RISC/OS. once again assuming)

I'll see what I can come up with. I have yet to get around the beaurocracy
of disposal yet. I'll let you know what haopens :)

Sorry about the format of the email. I'm stuck to excite email until I get a
real account happening (tomorrow hopefully)
