The story said they've been around since 1997. They sound very well
established and have what sounds like a substantial operation (80
employees). Expect a very corporate warehouse type setting. You'll
probably want to befriend the operations manager and let him/her know
you're interested in rescuing mainframes and stuff that come through.
Unless they're dicks they'll probably be really receptive. The founder of
the company sounded like a really nice guy and would probably be happy to
help save history.

Hey I'm in Columbus too, that makes 3 of us.
Pick the friendliest * guy and go on down and make friends.
However they might be just starting up and not everybody
settled in yet, just a possibility to look for.
