More getting-rid-of-stuff-I-dont-use:
I've got a pair of Buffalo Linkstation NAS units.  Both are the 
HD-H160LAN model with 160G PATA hard drives, but one is PowerPC-based while
the other is MIPSel-based.  They have 10/100 Ethernet interfaces and USB2.0
ports to add external USB disk storage, printers, etc.

MIPSel model (LS2):

Both are highly hackable and can be turned into a "normal" Debian system if
you don't like the existing firmware.  I've got the replacement OpenLink 
firmware installed on both units, to enable telnet/SSH access:

I'd like to get $125 (shipped) for both units together.  Email if
interested..
