Well, I checked out my local Goodwill stores. What a waste. When I asked
about old Apples, the computer supervisor said "we refuse those."
Wow, they refuse Apples. My local Goodwill stores sell them pretty
cheap normally. I just saw a Platinum //e today, with color monitor and
two floppies, for $20, I think. That could have been just for the
monitor, but I doubt it.
When I
asked about Sun and DEC, they looked at me like I was speaking an alien
language. A few extremely overpriced 486 & Pentium 75 systems, that's it.
Wow, my local Goodwill stores almost never get 486's much less Pentiums.
Other than the huge box of old cards that I sorted through. Nothing of
note except for a whole slew of 3Com and IBM brand Token ring cards (all
say "4/16") and one Kingston KTC-9160 eight slot memory expansion
board. If anyone wants any of these email me.
I don't normally see cards here. I thik cards might get thrown out, if
they even get donated.
