Free old hardware in Waltham, MA

[David Kramer]

Early tomorrow, I will be carting a huge pile of old hardware to the
curb of my house to be hopefully picked up by Waltham's HazMat pickup. 
I don't expect them to be there early, so if anyone is interested in
poking though it first, be my guest.  I simply came to the realization
that it is unlikely I'll find a project needing any of this stuff, as I
still have a few extra computers after all this.  I expect this to
extend the life of my house's foundation considerably ;)  Besides, I
need to make room for when I return from this Sunday's MIT Flea.  And if
they don't show up, that will eb less stuff I need to haul back
downstairs.

My only request:
-If you rummage through there, leave it all in some semblance of order.
-Don't ask me to support anything you take (I will answer questions).
-Don't complain if you drive all the way from Kentuky and can't find
anything of value.
-If you get there real early, please try to be quiet about it.
