OK I'll ask the question people ask me WHY?
I still get my hands on my machines, and use them one in a
while.
When it gets this big does it get any use?
Is it for investment purposes?
How often do these machines get fired up?
I heard about several Semi trailers full of machines about
to be sold by the pound for metal recovery, I may get them
for .30/lb
I'm planning on refurbishing them and sending them back out
for use. Most are 486 and low end Pentiums but I did see a
K2 in the bunch.
This guy had great stories about removing water cooled
IBM's for the metals and was thinking who would have a
garage big enough to hold one and a power supply big enough
to plug it in.
