80s computers still wouldn't be worth much of anything if 99% of them didn't get recycled.
I don't think there is anything beautiful, interesting or unique about a couple of million outdated generic x86 2U servers, nor will there really ever be.
- stallmanite 7y agoI felt this way about some of my early “generic” x86 systems and threw them out. Now I feel like an idiot because I’d love to fire up my old 486 again.
