Well ... people who REALLY want to see an old-time (REAL) machine can always
go to a local junk yard and see the rusting hulks in the yard. They hang
around a long time because it's so unprofitable to disassemble the racks,
since there are mixes of plastics, aluminum, and steel, which means labor's
required to make 'em useful. They're not terribly exciting to watch, since
they don't show much evidence of the stuff going on inside.

Subject: computer sales -- now only on e-bay???
Is the classic computer sources finally drying up to
become E-bay
collector items only so most people can't see a real machine anymore?
