[Info-vax] Old Hardware

I'm cleaning up around the howm datacenter and periodically come accross
stuff from the older Alpha's I had.  If there is any interest in them as
I find them I would be willing to let them go cheap and One-Size-Fits-All
boxes from the USPS make shipping cheap within the US.  Let me know if
there is likely to be any inte5rest here or if I should just dispose of
them like PC cards.

At the moment I have the following PCI cards available:
  A DEC Ethernet Turbo Controller - This one has AUI, 10base2 and 10baseT
                                    all onboard.
  An NCR8100S SCSI Adapter.
  A COMPAQ Card with what appears to be Video and SCSI on one card.

All of these came out an AS3100 many years ago and have been sitting
on a shelf here since.   I kept them because I actually had another
AS3100 for a while, but I got rid of it.

Any interest?

And, on another note, Kingston made Ethernet cards for a while that
used the DEC Tulip.  Has anyone ever tried these to see if they work
with VMS?  I have kept a bunch because the were great performers but
there are other great performers today and if these work with VMS
there might be a need for them somewhere else.
