    Got my first gov't auction today

    Almost didn't win when they pushed up against the top that I had set as my highest bid, but luckily they stopped $30 short. The auction had 23 HP Compaq dc5800 Desktops, 21 dc5700 Desktops, 13 dc5100 SFF Desktops, and 9 other misc machines.

    I figure the dc5800's can be loaded with Vista for resale - I did order 6 refurbisher copies of Windows 7 today to see if machines loaded up with 7 move quicker. I should be able to double my money or better with the 5800's and then will plan on scrapping out the 5100s and older machines.

    Would you load the 5700's up for resale? I'm hoping that they have XP licenses because I still have quite a few people who want working machines that have XP loaded on them.

    I'll try and get some pics when I load them up on Friday!
