I'd negotiate a lower price based on that. And if they won't go lower, I'd just find either a >300 MHz AMD-K6-2, or a multi-processor moboard using the PII. And if you do get the PPro, I'd keep an eye open for spares... Otherwise, a CPU failure would render the moboard useless... Unix systems measure "uptime" in years, Winblows measures it in minutes.
