if it seems to have all the pieces and is potentially in working order, i'll
take the mac off your hands if no one claims it! just give me the address
and i'll come pick it up :-P
on a more seriousness note, is there ever any sort of get together on
sundays? i used to be able to help out at the MIT museum but can't due to
scheduling. Sunday is basically the only day i have to pitch in.
(shrugs) even if nothing normally happens, if any stuff should ever happen
on a sunday and you guys need a hand with something, i can show most any
reasonable (see: easy to find) place and help out.
