tlug: New Server Hardware

OK - I'll donate my old (beloved but recently neglected) P75
mini-tower for the TLUG server.   I never have time to use it these
days anyways.  I'll post the specs on it tomorrow.

Also, on the UPS issue, our company has an extra UPS which we were going
to throw away when we move buildings.  It will give about 5 minutes
service during an outage.  It has a small footprint and the tower
can sit on top of it.


-Joe.
