The story:

Shortly before I met Amy in '98, I owned a BeBox.  At the time, it wasnt
"useful" for me, and I put it up for sale/trade.  I ended up (stupidly)
trading the BeBox (dual 66mhz) to Pete for what was then a NICE system -
a loaded SPARCstation 5/110 and monitor.

(Amy saw the BeBox before I shipped it off.)

Eventually, the BeBox made its way from Pete to Steve Hatle, whom I've
been trying to convince to sell me the machine back, for the past two
years or so.  Amy gives me hell about trading off a rare box (only
1800 were made) for a rather common SS5.  Heck, to me, at the time,
it was a GREAT deal. 8-)

Same here, from '91-95.  Was much better during high school/college
than flipping burgers.
