Interesting. I see the seller is brand-new on eBay. If I read the
description right it looks like it's 10 racks. I don't know what it
would take to get it up and running, but wouldn't that be cool :^)

It would be interesting to know what the reserve is set at the
opening bid of $1600 seems, how shall I put it, ambitious?

Seriously though, what are the odds of it going for anything other than scrap?
