IBM mainframe goes for 99 cents

Perhaps that there aren't many classic computer collectors types in the
south (I know of Paul in Augusta, GA and Ed in Columbia, SC). Although we
drive pickup trucks, talk slow, eat lots of pig cooked in a pit over hickory
coals, our dogs lay on the porch and wag their tails, and we sleep with our
shotgun nearby, we just don't have the urge to erect another building on our
farms to house IBM mainframes.

I'll let the 19 year old guy have the corner on that market for now. :-)
