  that's the point where it's probably possible to buy "new" without
  giving up too much money. I wouldn't mind putting some cash into my
  Octane, but I prefer to spend the little computer budget I have on
  more antique things.

  Yup. I was just a bit worried - my mailbox is a total mess at the
  moment (1500+ mails a day). If you don't mind (this is also for
  anybody else who wants to contact me in person) CC your mail(s) to
  gerhard.lenerz AT gmx with the german TLD added. ;)

  Uuuh... that sounds like a nice haul. :)
