Locating older systems & parts... (was: RE: making disk images)

"If I had a dollar for every time........." Hoping to find a PCjr show up here is probably impossible. Im in Carbondale, IL, which is pretty much by itself in the deeper part of So. IL. Most of the area around here is farm land and what not, and the chances of great computer fnds are *probably* a little less than if I were nearer a larger metropolotian area...[sigh].....Oh well...

What's worse is, they will take all the parts... just not the CPU. So they breakdown otherwise complete systems. Although, I am humored when the occasional computer makes it thru, like the other day they had a PCjr. It just shows that they know nothing about the stuff. If it doesn't look like a modern WinTel box, they don't seem to recognize it. -chris
