A friend has about a dozen computers and monitors he is getting rid of. 
They are mostly older units, but I have no specs on them.
Just a heads up if your looking for hardware.
I can bring to the next Sunday meeting if desired.

While you (John) didn't _previously_ have specs on the dozen or so 
computers and monitors your friend is getting rid of, would you possibly 
have specs on *some* of them _in advance_ of this Sunday's meeting?

Reason for inquiring is that I might be specifically interested in one of 
the smaller monitors (14" LCD up to 17" LCD with both VGA +and+ DVI 
connectors), but _not_ interested in the computers that might go with the 
monitors. Would try to bring a Raspberry Pi 3 along with its peripheral 
cables and a HDMI-DVI cable to test out for this upcoming Sunday's 
meeting.

IIRC, more detailed info on monitors is usually on the back sides of their 
screens, so this info shouldn't at all be too difficult to obtain. More 
detailed specs could be more readily looked-up with the monitor 
manufacturer/make and specific model info on hand.
