Hey everyone,
	A friend of mine was able to pick up a VA Linux 1220 relatively cheaply
from a friend.  She wants a nice desktop box and asked me what she
thought she could do.  The 1U 1220 isn't really a good desktop box, but
the hardware's good.  I was hoping someone out there would be interested
in either swapping a fairly decent desktop box 1 for 1 for this VA or
simply swapping MB & CPU (and maybe RAM) combos.  So, here's the details
on the box:

VA 1220 - full swap
	Case is 1U (1 3/4") x roughly 23" deep
	ASUS CUR-DLS Motherboard
		Dual Channel SYM53C896 68 Pin SCSI
		1 Onboard Intel EE Pro 100
		Onboard ATI Rage XL
		2 USB
	Dual 800 Mhz Intel P3 processors
	1 Add on Intel EE Pro (PCI Riser)
	512M Ram (PC133 registered SD)
	18GB Quantum Atlas V 
	XX speed IDE CDROM

Manual for the MB:
