Can't we all just get along, and get back to business?

As I SAID ALREADY... I simply misunderstood the post and was just trying
to help AND I didn't mean to send it to the whole list.

I didn't know it is getting more and more exiting on good old boring
ADSM list.

It is very nice of you that you are playing Bond, James Bond and trying
to protect the Community from evil offers. I'm member of this list
around 5 years and this is a first time that we are selling ONE
autoloader that WE removed from our data center. If you want I can show
you invoice from Ingram Micro (our distributor) from apr/04 when we
purchased this autoloader.
And last information; we paid for this autoloader more than $10000 and
I'm willing to sell it for less than $3000. What a deal for us.

And for Canadians, enjoy a long weekend;

First, I didn't mean to reply to the list.  (I didn't notice that the
reply-to was set to the list.)

Second, I was just trying to help.  His posting did not appear to be a
user selling his own stuff.  It appeared to be a gray-market reseller.
(The wording of the post as well as his URL suggested that.)

Third, my signature simply states my title and my credentials.  It's no
different than other signatures that explain what size environment
you're admining, or where you're doing it.  I can't say "I admin a 200
TB TSM environment," but I can say I wrote a few books, which usually
causes people to give SOME credence to what I write.

I'm just trying to get more connected to and participate in the TSM
community.  I'm sorry if my attempts to do so somehow ruffle your
feathers.

Frankly, your signature, Curtis, strikes me as more commercial than
Joe's offer. And, yet, we haven't run you off yet.

Not that anyone has died and made me list czar, but the LISTSERV lists
I've been on for more than a decade, including ADSM-L, have a long
history of users offering up surplus equipment to list members as a
win-win situation. Joe's not trying to make a profit selling LTO2
autoloaders; he's just trying to make a friendly offer.

If that's too commercial for you, to find some pure ivory tower to play
in, and let us used to our culture enjoy it.

Says me, anyway.

Nick
