I was going to bid on it, but Bart beat me to it! We can all help pitch in to help pay for the cost, to ensure we all win! What do you say?
I'm sure you have a paypal account... Use that so we can contribute...or I can just give you the $$$ in MOAB!!!! YAAAY! (Sorry, I am excited...I leave tomorrow morning.) I don't have "portable internet", so I won't be able to keep tabs on it...
Good luck! I hope you win!
I'm willing to contribute as well...
Don't really want to install windows on my machine... but will for this.![]()
Yup, I do have a paypal account. I think we will just wait and see if I win. If the price gets really high, then I will see who wants to help out. For now, I will just leave my sniper bid in there for the auction's closing. So, you won't see my action until about 20 seconds from the end. I will be in Moab at the time too, but I will have my laptop, so hopefully I can jack into the Matrix somewhere and check on things.

Well, hopefully, I can just make copies of all the software for everyone. Worst case scenrio, if this machine is running some sort of weird proprietary XP OS made specifically for this "Isuzu Dell Computer", than I will make an image of the hard drive, which should work via MS Virtual Machine for everyone. It will take some work to get it figured out, but my guess is this is just a regular old Dell computer, running Windows XP, with an Isuzu Corporation image on it, that was provided by Isuzu to Dell, so Dell can ship all the machines pre-loaded this way to the dealerships. A lot of big companies do it this way. So that means, all I need to do is rip all the software for everyone, and make it available either via the mail through me, or on this website. I bet its just a bunch of stuff like the manual we already have and then some.
Here we are talking about it like we already won. I'll shut up now until the auction is over.

Great idea. We better win here. I was going to post that we better not be bidding against each other for no reason. It would be best to snipe this one out get it dirt cheap as possible and then copy the files and distribute. This makes me want to call to other isuzu and see if they have something available.
It would be nice to make sure they have a VX specific info. I know we have crossed referenced parts but if there was something more specific it would be alot better.
Has anyone questioned this dude?
