Yep, from memory 10.4 will support the DN3xxx and later, just not the
earlier machines. We don't have anything earlier than the 3xxx's anyway
- it wasn't possible to save the ones that turned up a while ago up
north and they ended up as landfill :-(

Just in case anyone local has anything, we could do with the following
Apollo bits:

  Late-model Domain keyboard
  Front case flap for a 4xx machine
  Foot for vertically mounting a 4xx machine
  2 x Front case panels for DN3500 machines
  6 x cable adapters (token ring card to BNC)

And of course finding some earlier Apollos and a DN10k would sure be
nice, but I'm not holding my breath ;)

I'd like another five 4xx series machines to go with the three that we
have to be honest - 8 in their own little domain would be nice for the
public to mess around on, and visually would look nice together rather
than a network of random apollos...

cheers
