(I'm posting this message for a friend, whose employer
 suffered the loss of one of their Apollo nodes recently.
 He works for a small company, so this theft hurt them
 badly. Any information regarding this matter would be
 greatly appreciated; please send any info. to me via
 >>MAIL<< (NOT news!), or phone me at (416)-667-0517,
 and I'll pass it along to my friend. Thanks! -KAC)

 On Saturday, December 9th, several items of computer
 equipment were stolen from a Toronto company. They were:

 - an Apollo DN4000, Node ID = 130f1, with a 5-1/4"
   floppy disc drive, a cartridge tape controller board,
   and an ethernet card;
 - a QMS-PS 810 laser printer;
 - a Danford external cartridge tape drive;
 - a Fastcomm 9600 "Turbo" modem.

 If you see any such equipment come on the market ("great
 deal; real cheap"), and suspect that it might be the stolen
 equipment, please contact me, either via email or telephone.
 In particular, if people on the net were to do a "bldt"
 command on any newly-installed DN4000's that they happen 
 across in the next few weeks, and compare the resulting
 node ID with the one given above, I think that there's
 a fair chance of finding out who carried out the theft.

 The possibility of a reward (say, for information leading
 to recovery of equipment, or prosecution of the thief
 or thieves) should >>not<< be ruled out.

 Many thanks.
