[CQ-Contest] What will happen to our contest devices?

[David Robbins]

i have 6 386x25's with 40 meg and a 386x40 with an 80meg drive that
are used only for ct... but i am looking at upgrading to either 
pentiums or to network computers when i get far enough along to 
try running the Java OpenLogger program during a contest.  i
have seen used pentium 90's and 100's around here for about $500.
