It didn't used to be that way. I'd see old PC stuff
listed at crazy prices for ages in the surplus ads.
Then the liquidators finally decided that it was
better to put sane prices on the stuff just to get
rid of it all. :) Unfortunately we still have
Sun Remarketing and some outfit that deals mainly
in IBM PS/2 plus a bit of Mac stuff to laugh at
over their inflated prices.
