Attention All Geeks!

Attention All Geeks!

Welcome to 'Weirdstuff Warehouse', no visit to Silicon Valley is complete w/o a stop at this place, the Holy Grail of geeks. Want an IBM 350 Disk File (invented by Reynold Johnson) circa 1956 w/ fifty 24-inch platters (total capacity 3.75 MB, a little more than a floppy)? How 'bout 5 broken Thinkpads for $25 each - create your own Frankenstein road-warrior! I like the DOD cabinets w/ combo locks so Dr. Evil & Mini-Me can keep their plans for world domination secure. USB mice for a buck, PCMCIA cards galore. Any operating system on CD ever created for a song. No returns! Special bid 'cages' w/ a slew of industrial machines - design and burn your own circuit boards! This is where failed dot-coms come to die, if you can't find it here, it doesn't freakin' exist. I want to buy the Litton inertial missle-guidance module, not sure when or how I'll use it, but if I beat Elon Musk to Mars, you'll know how I got there. Enjoy!

Hey JB. Great reporting. Seems there could be a reason you are in Sunnyvale, Ca. My money is on you making it to Mars with the Litton inertial missile-guidance module ahead of everyone else. I think Mr. Musk should look you up for some serious discussions. Best Regards, PJ
