    Hello,



    My name is Todd. I'm an IT Manager in the Kansas City area. I have a dwindling collection of Sun Microsystems and Silicon Graphics machines, which is the main reason I'm here. I haven't done any scrapping or recycling just yet, I'm just trying to figure out what I have and if there's anything worth recovering. My interest was piqued a few weeks ago when I stumbled upon some completed eBay auctions for some scrap RAM. So I figured I could turn some of the parts I have collecting dust into cash.

    Welcome Todd, do yourself a great favor and read the old threads here. The education is free and I am certain you will learn profitable information. Now I'm not pushing but we have memebers who are buyers of ewaste and post prices here. Here is a link to get you started in the ewaste area.

    Don't stop with that read thru the other sections and learn about other areas of scrapping, Mike.

    Now go beat the copper out of something, Miked

    Bear,

    Yes, that was me. I made the Origin post, then read the 'Please introduce yourself first' thread, and then got called away from the computer and completely forgot about doing it. Came back just now and saw that it was deleted. Oops. Anyway, I've resubmitted a brief version again.

    Thanks miked, that certainly helps.
