They're still so common (at least in the UK) I suppose and so are worth next
to nothing. The local recycler doesn't even bother advertising them complete -
the cases get crushed and the PCBs get sold to the gold scrapper; it makes him
far more money that way than to take the time to advertise somewhere, package
and post a machine. :-(
I hate to think how many rare/unusual variants he must have trashed over the
years... (not to mention other things like ARM eval kits, ACWs etc.!)
cheers
