Idiotic people who do not know the value of classic equipment

Hi, A friend of mine works for a robotics engineering firm who were heavy users of transputers. Well, the moved away from transputers a while back and are using PCs to do all their vision calculations, etc. I asked him to hold on to all of the unwanted transputer equipment (T801 trams with 4Megs of memory, B008s, PowerPC Trams, etc, etc) and he agreed to it. Well, when he was on vacation, the company decided to clean up their old equipment and throw away all of their so-called junk. They threw away graphics board that were brand-new still in the box, tons of UPSs still new, i860 processors, C004s, trams, tram boards, etc, etc. All really good and quite expensive stuff. He promised me he will look for other transputer stuff that may be lying around after the cleanup, but this really really BITES! Ram
