First off thanks for both offers to help store these boxes, I think I 
found enough space at our place.

I opened one box and found it was a 386sx 16mhz no upper memory, has 
floppies and 40mb hdd. It was a PowerFlex.

A majority (~4-5) of the boxes are ibm 5x86's (486) w/ floopies, hdds, 
nics, etc. I didn't have time to bust them all the way open to check 
the size of the hdd. All the boxes have monitors. No keyboards or mice 
w/ them. I figure we can get those from surplus. I wonder if the State 
would be willing to 'donate' their surplus to us to assist in community 
support efforts? An interesting idea.

I haven't heard anything about a non-profit loosin' stuff. Was it 
stolen, or damaged from water?

There was also a JVC 1/4" or 1/2" top loading vhs machine there. I 
didn't want to take it because I would have absolutely no use for it. 
It would be nothing more then a shelf in my office. If anyone can find 
a use for it, let me know and I can go and pick it up.
