[olug] Computers for sale

[Obi-Wan]

The two Toughbooks are taken.  Any interest in the rest of the lot?
I'm heading to Papillion on Friday evening and can bring along any
of the computers that are headed that direction.  I'm not sure when
I'll be in Omaha again.

Remember, the prices listed are just what I found on eBay, and should
not be construed as my official asking price.  Make me an offer.
