I did have a colleague who took an Apple Lisa? (with the built in handle), removed the guts, and attached it to his anchor line on his canoe. It makes a perfect mushroom anchor, which drags and lets the boat drift.

LOL, I was just trying to do some humor - nothing more; nothing less.    8-)

I'm not sure if I have to defend my plug on the HP 700 series terminals but...


Hmmm, from $150.00 to $225.00...that seems a tad high for a bass boat
anchor.    8-)
(its a boat anchor unless you need them)

BlueLine services has many terminals from 35.00 and up... Thanks Gary (get your own <plug>)

Way to go...I was having the exact same thought...they should be selling by the pound..
(it could take up to 2 hours to refurbish one of the terminals, the price is more reflective of labor and the warranty)

Sell by the pound ?  One of these days your PCs might all get infected and you'll by dusting off your DTC's and buying terminals by the TON  (or
bass-boatload)    
(thank you)  

Who has terminals that do not have 30 years of stuff burnt into the screen?
I am partial to the green:)
(we do, we still purchase NEW tubes that we replace when needed) 


We all know that 3000 stuff is more than 15+ years old so yes all HP 3k servers & peripherals are boat anchors. I'm just trying to keep this 3000 hardware alive, I know there is a need out there to user that are still on it.
