JF,
     I know, I bought one from him too.  I'm just looking for a cheap
workstation with multiple PCI slots to replace the PWS600au which has
gotten a bit slow for desktop/browser ops.  I've got a nice SCSI board
and a very nice EV6 only graphics card and they won't all fit in the
one slot on a DS10L.  So the choice is an XP1000 or a full fledged
DS10/DS15, neither of which I can afford right now.  Christmas, bills,
taxes (and more taxes, welcome to Ill Annoy).  Even thinking about it
today made gas prices jump $0.22/gallon in 5 hours ;).

     (An itanic like the cheapies on ebay would be nice too but I
don't have anywhere to run such a bloody noisy box...)
