While I don't mind someone occasionally plugging a sale for their own gear, I
/don't/ like see this sort of remark.
"Buy my stuff or the [insert name] gets it!"
Of course we know Goodwill junks (scraps, dumpsters) the computers they get that
can't run Windows 7 or newer. That's their stated policy now because they
supposedly don't want people returning a computer and bitching that it can't run
the latest version of Windows.
Maybe I'm the only one who gets annoyed with this sort of remark though...
Actually it tends to mirror my thought on the subject in spite of my having systems that I
need to get rid of at some point.
Offer them for free for local pickup before threatening to scape them.
