Well, I've now exchanged four messages with her, and it's obvious that
she's the dealer. In the third message she was wondering how she could
sell old computers, so I gave her some advice, including to find out what
the average price seems to be, and to undercut it otherwise she'll find
herself sitting on useless stock :^)
Tonites message was asking me if I was intending to collect legacy
mainframes and mini's. Talk about a jump, such things hadn't even been
mentioned, the closest thing on my webpage is a VAXstation. It's enough to
make me glad I've been more or less polite instead of flaming her!
Needless to say I sent her a message tonite letting her know that I'm
interested, and if it's something I don't want (probably due to where it
is) that I'd pass the information onto people that will be interested.
Who knows what started out as an insult, might turn out to be an
interesting source.
