A fellow IBM'er of mine is selling me his complete IBM PS/2 system. It's 
MicroChannel AND has Token Ring! woohoo. It is also SCSI! I am also getting 
a MAU in original plastic still WITH reset tool. yippie. I can add that to 
the 24 port Bay Networks (now Nortel) Baystack 504 (mod) that I have. Now 
all I need to do is toss in a few larger SCSI drives and find someone nice 
enough to have a copy of the MCA configuration floppy that I will be 
needing. Once I know the specific unit, I will ask the list for help on 
that. More than likely, I know I'll get a few flames, but hey, gotta ask as 
it will be my main machine/server on the TR side of the network. It is 
currently running DOS and a semi-modified Windows 3.1 (?). I want to do 
something, like toss Debian on it as it has a very nice net install and 
works well for me so far. Any suggestions guys?
