[H-GEN] Computer for sale

[BENJAMIN FOWLER]

Dear Frank,

I hope that you are well.  I would be very interested in buying any bits
and pieces you might have, since I am in the process of putting together a
machine of my own.  If you do sell you machine as parts, I cerainly would
be interested in obtaining the processor, hard drive, drives, keyboard or
case.

Many thanks in advance, and thanks for your time.

Yours truly, 

Ben.
