I go every time it is in town. I have picked up many used components for next to nothing. You have to know what you want and where to look. Last year I picked up a server rack for $100. The exact same one listed for over $750. I picked up 2 1 Gig sticks of Micron PC2100 DDR Reg ECC for $160 a stick. These go for $500 each online. There is much more and I could go on for a while listing motherboards, cpu, and other periphs. The deals are there you just have to find them. Yes parking is expensive and it's a long walk to the show from the garage, but, well worth it. -- If I can't do it today, I'll figure it out by tomorrow. |
