[dorkbotsea-blabber] Sat. Mar 28 UW Surplus Public Auction (fwd)

[Eric McNeill]

Anyone interesting in going in on a pallet of servers (rack-mount PCs)? I
wouldn't mind having a few of these for projects but my wife would kill me
if I brought home 40 of them. They don't have hard drives, but they have
those for sale as well. I figure that between the missing and broken parts
we'd probably be able to scrounge a number of serviceable machines.

Does anyone have experience w/the auction to know how much a pallet of PCs
typically goes for? I've only bought single items in the past.
