So the last time I posted about computers I was getting rid of,
one fellow took my free one and salvaged parts to bring two PCs back to
life. Yay! :)
On the other hand, the one I was trying to _sell_ is still sitting here
on my counter. I haven't put much effort (e.g., Craigslist or eBay)
in selling it, but at the same time I'm sick of it sitting on my counter.
So here we go again. This time for a mere $75. :)
