I'm trading the last of my home Q-bus systems to the guy who's letting me put
the 4000/200 in the ISP. It's a good trade - I get all the bandwidth I need,
power, cooling, all gratis, and he gets a KA650 in a BA123. Yes, it's got a
DHV11 in it, so it could have worked, but I need the space it was taking up
besides. And I don't feel like paying BlackBox $12 each for 8 more MMJ->DB25
adapters.
