Says who?
Well, the guy who lost his collection because it was in his office,
I'll bet.
In that regard, I can't help but wonder what has
become of all those
machines, which depending on the computer lab, were pretty much
everything from original II up through the IIe platinum and IIgs.
school administrators? dumpster!
They tried to fire one of my colleagues for retrieving stuff from the
dumpster. That included a few dozen Hell & Bowel black Apples. And then
during the hearings, they gave him 2 hours to get stuff from his office and
then dumpstered his entire collection.
Your office is not the place to store personal collections anyway.
For quite a while, I kept a PDP-8/i in my office at
Microsoft. I'd run a light chaser on it (it had no peripherals) and freak out
interview candidates, college hires... well, let's face it, just about everyone. --
