I assume from the above that someone is looking for a zip code database.
Recently I installed a dbase-clone product called ALPHA 4 for one of the
yo-yos at work.  One of the sample files that comes with it is a good-sized
(the .dbf + the .ndx > 2mb) zip code database.  If you know somebody who has
this product, it <might> be a cheap solution to your problem, if zip vs city
is good enough (I don't think it has county info).

Subject: WANTED I/O card (2 serial, 1 parallel)
Date: 3 Sep 92 22:39:41 GMT
Followup-To: misc.forsale.computers
Organization: Electrical Engineering, Cornell University, Ithaca NY

I would like to get an I/O card for my 486 PC.  The minimum I'd like
is a generic 2-serial, 1 parallel port card.  These tend to sell for
about $20 or less new, so I'm not willing to offer a whole lot for one
used.

I'd also be interested in a high-performance serial port, (one with
the 16550 uART on it), or perhaps an intelligent serial card (with 2-4 ports,
I'm only going to connect 1 terminal and perhaps a mouse to the thing, I 
don't need 8 ports).  If someone has one of these for sale, obviously the 
price would be higher.

More than one parallel port would also be a win.

Please email replies.

Thanks,

Craig

   Maybe you should check with the millionares... the vast majority of them

   Definitely true!  If you screw others, you will find it comes back and gets
you someday.

   Maybe to a certain extent.  The problem is where do you put your money?
Savings accounts, CD's, money market accounts??  None of this is going to come
close to building up enough income for retirement (unless you only plan to be
retired for a couple of years)  When 90% of people playing in the stock, bond
and commodity market actually lose money when you take inflation into account
over a ten-year period - that doesn't sound like a good idea either!

	START YOUR OWN BUSINESS!  That's how to make your dreams come true.

Hey George!
	Certainly, most companies wouldn't want to publicize the fact
that they may provide assistance in relocation costs.  In fact, 
it is quite possible that most companies don't even have a policy 
regarding relocation costs.  I'll speak about my situation.  
	I was asked to leave my old job and come to work in California.
Since I lived in Virginia at the time, we are talking about a 
substantial move!  Although I would have rather moved myself, I 
certainly didn't relish the thought of driving a U-Haul across the
country.  So I not only kept turning down the position [for a 
larger salary], but I also said that I liked the job, but it was
gonna cost me a fortune to move.  [This was a hint]. After a while,
they said they would pay all my relocation expenses, within reason, 
as well as put me up in an apartment in CA until I could find a place
to live permanently.  Obviously, they didn't want me flying across
the country on MGM GRAND airlines, renting a limousine to bring me 
to the office, or anything like that, they just wanted me to take it
easy on them.  
	The bottom line?  I found an independent moving company to
move my one bedroom apartment full of furniture, etc., from VA to CA
for only $1500.  I drove across the country myself, staying at ComFort
Inns, and eating at steakhouses, and my total expenses were around 
$575, for travel.  I ended up in the apartment they provided me for
only a week, as I found a place to live rather quickly.  So the 
company put out approximately $2000 to get me to CA, and I hadn't
even started work yet!  Certainly, they wanted assurance that I 
wouldn't quit after I got here, and in today's economy, with all
the layoffs, I was more than happy to assure them that I wouldn't
quit!
	I think that most companies, if they want you bad enough,
will at least try to give you some help.  But I think it becomes
a matter of negotiation.
