I have to look and see if I have the owner's email address and write to find
out if this is it or if there is a new site now.
Maybe it's time to see about getting someone to sponsor a site similar to
that, with the posted messages and such online? The possibilities are
endless I guess...
I have the Abandoned Computer Shelter site at
http://www.computershelter.org. At the moment it's rather small and
juvenile, but I'm looking to expand it. I need some Perl CGI stuff done to
make bulletin boards and to automate the signup procedure for getting your
name on the ACS list. (anyone? anyone?) <shrug> Who knows. It'd be
nice to have a consistent site, I think. Plus, then have a museum section
to feature different old computers. I'd probably ask that people
contribute pictures of their "museum-able" pieces, some history behind
them, and what you use them for now. I think those are more interesting
than the old "well, I use it as a coffeetable" stories. "I use my VAX for
a wetbar!" <--- classic example. :)
So....at any rate, if anyone has ideas, let me know. :)
