I have an Optra L printer I'm going to chuck.  It doesn't print so well
any more, it has a few squeaks and groans.  It's printed 114927 pages. 
I hate to throw it into that big block filing cabinet outside.  If
somebody wants it, it's yours.  My main gripe is the toner cartridges
are about $250 for the 14000 sheet version, which doesn't print 14000
sheets, but hey, that's another story.  I tried using the cheap refills
and I can't say if that's the reason the printer started printing
poorly, but who knows?  

I also have a couple of Telebit modems which I loathe to throw out
also.  One is a T2500 which is a model up from the venerable
Trailblazer.  The other is a Worldblazer which was the V.32 version. 
The T2500 was my original 'Internet' connection: email via uucp.  FTP
via email anyone?  Warchive ring any (rusty) bells?  Or the archive at
ftp.uu.net?  shars?  

I also have a box of old cards to get rid off.  There's a VESA video
card, a couple of EIDE controllers, a wd1004 MFM controller.  It's been
awhile, but I think there's a 486 based MB or two, but I won't swear on
it.

There's an old Scanjet with an ISA interface card, and some Microline
92's (I think).  And an Epson FX-1040 or something like that  .  

The Optra may be worthwhile, but the other stuff - ?  It's just I hate
to fill up the land fill with this stuff.  I know this has been
discussed before and unfortunately I tend to skip through that stuff
PDQ, but what are the options for old kit?  

Anyway, this stuff is free for the taking.
