It's going to a very, very limited market, the museum got donated it for free, what the fek would you want a 1970s super computer for...scrap value maybe or may be objet d'art but nothing like $9 million.

Obselete electronics is mostly recycled for the gold, copper and silver content, I found out recently that pretty all the £1M _+ systems I used to test and install back in the early 90's have been decommissioned, I doubt there's a big market for obsolete Digital Speach Interpolations systems .

Who's been poking you with a sharp stick and making you grumpy anyhow :D

I'm not grumpy in the slightest, far from it actually old boy. %)

Lots of rich people would pay a lot of money for an old Cray. I would definitely pay more than tuppence ha'penny for it. I would offer precisely Five New Pounds for it.

Anyway, fuck that. I have an old ammo box that I want to refurbish. For some inexplicable reason my dear departed father painted it green, then he gave it to me, then I covered it in stickers, then I painted it black. It has the year of my birth on it. I'm thinking Nitromors. What do you think?

I think that is pretty freaking awesome.
 
@Felix, I'd be tempted to strip it right back to bare metal and then just clear coat it, I alos love an ammo box

I know, that's why I'm asking you. I know you've done things with ammo boxes in the past. Did you use paint stripper? :)
 
Nope but mine were still in original paint, you can get the proper military stuff really cheap and it's designed to go on with a brush or gloss roller although you can get aerosol.

I've got a fuck load of Nato green which i don't need much of now as I'm not painting the sidecar but it would likely cost more to send you some than it would for you to get it off Fleabay.

The military paint doesn't need primer so I would paint strip whatever is one there now, depends what you want it for afterwards bu there a big thing at the mo with 'rustoration' where you just strip it back to bare metal and clear coat it, I rekon it would look uber cool like that

Edit, it seems to be a post WWII box that has been around for a good while, not worries about authenticity of which of the numerous army green finishes http://browningmgs.com/AmmoCans/T-Chial/AmmoBoxes02_postWW2.htm

You're still drunk! The mother of all hangovers is gonna rear it's ugly head very soon...

I speak from experience. ;)
 
hahahahaha i still feel meggaaaaaa tired. Maybe cause I started on 2 mg yesterday. I've taken 4 mg half hour ago. I'm thinking do 2 4 alternate for next week then just drop to 2 mg. I seriously need something stimulating as I feel tired all the time. I'm sure it's a side affect of being on suboxone for 2 years coming May 23.

I was warned of this. Some people said that suboxone has negative affects the longer you're on it as really it should be for short term use. I just laughed n thought they were exaggerating. Guess not. Well i need to get off it just hope I can do it as i know this may sound wimpy but I'm kinda scared of coming off them though at thevsame time i want to be free of dependency. I've only myself to blame for all this.

i have no idea which horrible specialist prescriped you suboxone, especially with codeine addiction you had. If you're not in somekind of hardcore pains, not withdrawling, makes no sense? Or if theres stuff i don't know :)

Ofcourse you were warned, logic! I hope you get well soon, just don't give up!

septonn, have some vodka and the hungover will dissapear until tommorow :p
