Fellow techies,
I'm sorry to be the bearer of bad news, but I have learned
that Boeing Surplus's retail store will be closing permanently at
the end of this year. The last day for retail operations will be
Friday, December 21st. This decision was revealed to the employees
on July 13th. Boeing has, for unknown reasons, made no apparent
effort to publicize it.
Bruce made the local news...

Anybody on the list from Portland (or the Willamette Valley area)
want to carpool up there for one last hurrah?
Boeing Surplus was one of the things I'd hit on my monthly trip to
Seattle for junk. It'll certainly be missed.
