Replying to a message of BOB KLAHN to BOB ACKLEY:

 BA>> Up until the job was outsourced in 2005 I worked for an 
 BA>> Omaha insurance company.  They
 BA>> tossed dozens of desktop and tower model computers that 
 BA>> were perfectly functional
 BA>> but weren't fast enough, didn't have big enough hard 
 BA>> drives, not enough memory, weren't
 BA>> pretty enough, whatever.  I have two pallets of them 
 BA>> stacked five feet high in the basement.

 BK>  Put em on E-Bay. You could make a bit off them. And someone
 BK>  would get a computer they find useful.

Thought about it, but most are Gateways, and one can't seem to give those
away let alone sell them.  In any case my Internet use is limited to the local
library, and I only go up there once or twice a month.
