Lot of PDP-11/84 on ebay in Boston

With gold at $1200 an ounce he is probably sitting on some money in scrap. I am kind of curious how much the gold value is on stuff that old. My local scapper gets a little sensitive if he thinks something has gold in it, otherwise I can get anything ancient for next to nothing (well depending who is running the shop when I show up). So one guy says $100 each is a good deal, another said CPU and RAM is something like $200-300. Going by that maybe he isn't completely nuts in pricing considering he would have some time and money in packaging them up. When I see something listed at $200 and I can get it for $20 that's a bit crazy, this isn't 10x the going rate. Still I don't want one, so they are worthless to me. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Richard" <legalize at xmission.com> To: "General Discussion: On-Topic and Off-Topic Posts" <cctalk at classiccmp.org> Sent: Sunday, July 25, 2010 7:43 PM Subject: Re: Lot of PDP-11/84 on ebay in Boston
