Ged, please don't do that again. Imagine others starting to post this kind of requests here. We ask people not to post general perl questions here and you post a hardware sales request... That's just plain impolite to people.
------------------------------------------------------------------------ [OT] Sorry for this way off-topic part of my post.
We're looking for a Compaq Proliant DL380 G1 server in working order. They're getting pretty old now and they're not very common over on this side of the Atlantic, but from what I can see on eBay they're readily available in the USA, the going rate seems to be about 400-500 US Dollars. Unfortunately most eBay sellers won't ship internationally.
We're not fussy about the specifications of the machine, it will only be used to bench-test new hardware which has to be installed in our CoLo, but we'd want it to have a full complement of power supplies and obviously the more bang we can get for the bucks the better.
If anyone has one of these machines available for sale, or knows of someone with one they'd like to sell, please let me know. We don't need any software with it, we'll only be running Linux on it and we have all the necessary Compaq software. There's no great hurry, but if we could get something in December that would be great.
Alternatively some kind soul might allow me to get a machine delivered from eBay to their USA address, then we could get a carrier to collect it and bring it to England. That might make people nervous about the liability in case of damage or non-delivery: don't worry, I will bear the risk. Also, obviously, we wouldn't want anyone to incur any kind of expense on our behalf. ------------------------------------------------------------------------
