I'm not sure where you're located, but a few years ago, I faced the same problem with a 42.  Couldn't sell it, even for parts, and my scotch soul wouldn't let me pitch it.  Ended up donating it to a local Indian school, who used it to teach cobol programming and electronic repair-type stuff.  The company took a pretty fair tax break, as I recall, and the last I heard, the old pup was still earning it's keep.

Subject: What should I do with this old HP equipment?


I have this old HP 3000 that is gathering dust.

925LX           cpu?
7936            disk
7937 (qty. 3)   disks
2345A           not sure
7974            9-track tape drive

Is it worth trying to sell, or should we just throw it away?

P.S. Email cc's greatly appreciated.
