My dad took about 20 200 mhz lappies they were going to throw away and sold them.

He also got about 30 300 mhz boxes.

Made a pretty good profit off of them.

This was three years ago, btw.

I got this rack for free (I donated $5 to the childrens miracle network.) I have also gotten a $100 fire safe for a $5 donation to cmn (supposedly it didn't work, works great).

An ulcer, headaches, premature grey hair, burns from fixing the copying machine yesterday, paper cuts, a few free meals, and a psychotic ex-girlfriend.
