    Hello to everyone from Florida

    I've been working on computers for 33 years but only recently within the last year discovered the potential in scrapping old equipment.



    Earlier this year the company I work for was going to throw away around 40 old PCs. I was able to get them at no cost and scrapped them for what I thought was a decent amount of money.

    Since them I have been looking for sources for more electroninc scrap and just made a contact that could provide a lot of it.

    I've been lurking the forum for awhile to come up to speed, lots of great info and everyone seems very helpful.

    Well that's all for now...
