For a used monitor, sometimes people post free equipment to this list.
Also, there used to be a newsgroup, ucd.swap, that would have local
general junk for sale (not sure if it's still in use). The Bargain
Barn on campus:
	http://ucdmm.ucdavis.edu/BargainBarn/bargain_barn.html

has used equipment that departments are trying to get rid of. Some
times they don't overprice it :)

For general computery bits, there's Fry's Electronics in Sacramento
and HSC (HSC sells all kinds of random computer bits from used parts
to electronic components, arcade joystick replacements, etc).
