Looking for two pairs of DS10L rails

Hi,
I've got two DS10Ls sitting at OSUOSL [1] idle because they won't rack
them without rails.

They're going to be set up to help with Alpha development things. I'd
be great to get some rails if someone has any.

Let me know if you've got some.

Thanks,
Matt

Thanks for the email. I guess these are the same people selling Alpha
CPUs for $650 on eBay [1]?

I'm more looking more for donations, rather than paying more for a set
of rails than I could get a whole other DS10L. Is it worth me emailing
them?

According to one DS10L owner I asked, yes. But I'd be thrilled to find
out otherwise.

Thanks,

$195 for a pair of rails. :(

As I thought...
