[rescue] Free: Sun Enterprise 420R in Austin, TX]

[Lionel Peterson]

You're 3 hours away from me (Dallas), so I MIGHT be interested, but I would want to make the trip AFTER Dec 1st.

If someone else wants it, I won't stand in their way, but if it's still available after the 1st I'll probably make the drive.

Thanks,

Ken
