Vince - Welcome - we found a good central Auckland (Newmarket) source is XP Computers. Maybe not the absolute cheapest but good backup, service and warranty Peter Milsom -----Original Message----- From: aucklug-bounces at linux.net.nz [mailto:aucklug-bounces at linux.net.nz] On Behalf Of aucklug-request at linux.net.nz Sent: Wednesday, 27 December 2006 12:00 To: aucklug at linux.net.nz Subject: AuckLUG Digest, Vol 19, Issue 12 Send AuckLUG mailing list submissions to aucklug at linux.net.nz To subscribe or unsubscribe via the World Wide Web, visit http://www.linux.net.nz/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/aucklug or, via email, send a message with subject or body 'help' to aucklug-request at linux.net.nz You can reach the person managing the list at aucklug-owner at linux.net.nz When replying, please edit your Subject line so it is more specific than "Re: Contents of AuckLUG digest..."

Cisco related To: aucklug at linux.net.nz Message-ID: <20061226045742.69181.qmail at web33304.mail.mud.yahoo.com> Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ascii Hi All, This is totally off the "linux" space topic. However this is the only IT community that I know that will/may provide me the right information. I've been collecting EOL Cisco routers for my studies/lab testing and I've got a few descent enough routers and switches however it isn't enough for my future studies. I'm actually planning to turn my cisco racks into publicly available rack for cisco studies free-of-charge for NZ only. I have not figured out how to get this done but for sure there's a way. Currently I have the following: Cisco 2501, 2503, 1601, 1721 Catalyst 1900 (all enterprise IOS) I'm currently looking for any routers/multi-service switch from 25xx series and above. I'm willing to pay for it. A 4xxx series would be really good to have or 7xxx. I prefer to be contacted through this email address. TIA Regards, Banjo __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo!
