    First Pentium Pro!!!

    I stopped by a small time thrift store on my home after work today just for the heck of it and sitting on top of a desk was a Pentium Pro tower with no price tag on it. I went to the counter and asked the guy what he wanted for it and he told me $5. I literally almost pooped myself. He said he doesn't know anything about computers and that this one had been sitting there for over a month! I told him that i scrap computers and would gladly buy every single one he gets, untested, at that price. He went on to say that the one tower they had there was actually a mistake and made it from the warehouse to the store on accident. They usually get put upstairs in the warehouse because he can't sell them. Anyway, long story short he said that he has about 25 more just like that he got from a local Vo-Tech years ago. I am following him to the warehouse tomorrow afternoon to buy the rest of them. Just when i was getting a little down about my incoming flow of PC's, i get a bomb dropped on me!!! I'm so geeked out right now i can't even sleep.
