We got a bunch of crap that I'm not sure what to do with. I need ideas.
A few Macs.
7100/80 - Not much in it.
7200/120 - No RAM/VRAM.
Quadra 840AV - No HD (easily rectified) otherwise looks stacked.
IIfx - Dual floppy, dual video, 32 MB ram (I was reall surprised by this)
Now for the good stuff
2x - Apple IIe's. What can these possibly be used for? I don't even
know what OS these run...
Assorted NuBus cards
Asante Lite ethernet
Two Page MonoChrome card - 1989 date
Macintosh Display Card - 1989/90 date
7x Apple IIci Cache cards
Interesting stuff...
4x 3COM ISA 3c509TP/TPO (works well w/ Linux).
Really interesting stuff i.e. I have no idea.
Spaceballs - ADB plugs works w/ *nix. 6 degree's of freedom. These
are the old ones/don't work w/ anything but *nix.
Several Xterminals - HP 700/RX.
This explains everything.

Even has the boot images.
BlackBox FiberOptic Repeater
BlackBox Terminal Server
That's about it for the stuff I don't know what to do with.
You want anything we can come to an arangement i.e. swap/trade/give.
Suggestions for what it can be used for are desired (creative
suggestions please. I already have boat anchors/door stops etc.). I
want to know what this old crap can still do that's of any use.
