I'm sure it would be just the sort of thing he'd love to do. > Note: About 3/4s of the above occurred at companies I was not working > for at the time or have never worked for and at least 2 have happened in > the last 12 months. My knowledge of most is 3rd hand ( except the "hacker > in the Star Wars tie" ). Some of them have appeared in the press though.

Cisco 5500 bits
by Nathan Ward 21 Jul '07

21 Jul '07

I now work for WIC in Dunedin. We've got some Cisco 5500s, as we're keepin' it real, old-school style. Your Internet will likely traverse one (or more) of these 5500s when you attend NZNOG in January, so pay attention if you want reliable access to IRC. I'm interested in hearing from people who have spare parts for these that they'd be keen to move (for $, of course). It's better for the environment than throwing them out or dumping them in a store room, as they're not (AFAIK) RoHS … [View More]
