I'm pretty sure we don't need these; they're nice for the era, but not a
useful platform anymore.

These would be awesome.  There are never enough monitors in the space.

Also handy, they'd find very good homes at noisebridge.

Maybe?  I have no idea what the stability of the current printer situation
is.  Is adding another one going to help or hurt?  Anybody know?  Bueller?

Oh dear god no.  Sneaky, putting it in the middle of the list like that!

It might make good furniture, but the e250 was a tad too short to make
anything more than a disappointing ottoman.  If it was two of them, we could
add a nice plate of lucite and make a fetching coffee table, but just one...
notsomuch.

I'm pretty sure we're good on drives and rails; these are probably not
something we could use.

Thanks again!
