How the hell does a Cray get donated to Goodwill!? What a
shame. Goodwill should be trying to sell the items it gets to
raise money for the
poor rather than maintaining a computer museum. That doesn't feed &
cloth people last I checked.
Actually it does sell quite a bit of items, but they keep select stuff
as part of their vintage-items museum.
