A local city had it's annual spring cleanup trash pickup this week and as I was driving through I saw a IIgs on the side of the road. I already have a IIgs Woz so a spare could come in handy. I pulled over and got it. It had a monitor and a 3.5 inch as well as a 5.25 inch floppy with but all the cables were cut off them. Very sad. I could have used the drives. I noticed that this seems to be a common practice.

At another stop I picked up a HP Pavilion mini tower with a 466mhz Celeron in it. I pulled a matched pair of 128 PC100 ram sticks out of it and threw in a lesser amount to run Windows 98. It went up on Freecycle and someone took it in less than five minutes.
