One of my favorite surplus stories is when Intel sold us a new in the carton Cryogenic compressor as part of a large lot. It turns out it was a spare for the process line. Within a couple of weeks of us taking possession the main compressor failed. We sold it back for more than the price of the lot. We didn't soak them, we wanted more of their surplus. Someone in Seattle should go look at the "gene sequencer" and see what the Teletype is hooked up to. It could be a nice collectable. Paxton
