    I have run into a bunch of old apple stuff myself from the local schools. I have dabbled with selling some of the stuff on ebay. But in the end for myself it turned out not to be such a great deal. The time it takes to do the research and post takes away from the actual money I really make. I do this computer scrap thing full time , but if you were just doing it on the side that may be different for you. Then it would not be time allocated to doing something else anyway.

    As for the old emacs and old g3 all in ones, they are heavy, heavy, heavy! I have about 200 of these in my shop right now. When you tear into them the actual computer part inside the case is very small. I will weigh one of the boards today or tomorrow, but I know they will not weigh out real heavy. Getting them apart and putting the case back on is a pain. On top of all of that, they do not stack on a pallet worth a flip. I was at one of the large producers in Chicago. They do not even mess with those things, they treat them the same as CRT monitors and just send them off with the CRT's to a CRT de-manufacturer.

    I must admit to a bit of a bias, the name of our company is I'ma-PC...LOL
    There may a million better places to live than Iowa, but none of them are home!
