[mod.computers.apollo] Buyers of used Apollo equipment

  I asked about this some time ago; here I summarize the meager
responses for the net.
  The only company around seems to be IMPAK, a CAD-CAM reseller based
in California.  The contact there is a Mr. Greg Houston, 415-651-7373.
The general experience with this company seems to be that it is
very difficult to get hold of Houston, he doesn't return phone calls,
he delays weeks or months getting a quote in the mail to you, etc.,
but if you keep at it you may eventually get a firm offer from them.
  Good luck.

I found that Houston didn't return phone calls either.  I actually
talked to him for about 30 seconds.  He told me he would call me back in
10 minutes which never happened.  I called back and said that I would
buy from anyone but Houston.  I finally talked to someone else and got
my quote.  Purchasing has my info, now, but I think I could get the name
if you are interested.
