Oh, Efi! All hardened DEC collectors know about Efi (well, many of us do :-). They are indeed an ewaste recycler. Good people. The company name is ComUsed and/or TopLine. They used to be in Silver Spring (the place was the personification of 'gomi' from "Neuromancer" :-), but it got too small, so they moved. (Sniff. I miss the old place!) They got started on DEC stuff when they bought some DEC collector's entire collection after that person passed; most of that's long gone (it's been _thoroughly_ picked over :-), but they occasionally get more DEC stuff.
