Isn't it something that you try to sell the obscure in your local area to have
people ask what you'd pay them to throw it away for you but newer items sell at
reasonable amounts. Get on something like ePay and the weird and no longer
desirable (by the average person) goes for weord amounts and newer machines
rarely get a look (ie 286 and 386 machines).
