Hm. I got a *bunch* of classiccmp stuff from an University of Texas
auction earlier this spring. Maybe the prisons did not want the stuff.
Which auction?
The auction company was Swico Auctions (
http://www.swicoauctions.com/),
and the location was the "J. J. Pickle Research Campus" in Austin. They
look to have just put a similar auction up on their site, slated for
01/23/2002.
Heres the info on the bill I mentioned:
Bill: SB 1105
Legislative Session: 76(R)
Enrolled 06/18/1999 E Effective on 9/1/99
Relating to repair and resale of certain data processing equipment.
