I didn't actually get anything.. but I saw alot...

One particular place had alot of cool stuff, like some stuff for some "inVision" *(dunno if that was the actual name) computer, it was nothing I'd ever seen or heard of before, it sounds like it came out of the '80s, and was used for high end graphics or something...

At the same place, was loads of *OMG* PROJECTORS!!!
Old 8mm and reel-to-reel film projectors, mom said that maybe we'd go back tomrrow and get one of the projectors to salvage..

Other thn that, there was alot of useless (to me) junk, at least 100 different TVs between the two places of swaps we went, and a few P100 ~ish systems (a complete packard bell, IBM, and Dell...)

Tomorrow when/if I go back, I'll also salvage that old computer stuff, ask if i can rummage around to see if I can find the CPU, and there was LOTS of cool old books and junk... Maybe if i can find the CPU, and there's a monitor that'll work with it, I'll compile a buncho pictures and junk of it, that way the internet knows about just one more KIND of computer...

It looked like a machine that was meant for high end graphics, it had CAd software, and a modem, and a "DOS" (not THE does, but a Disk Operating System) and a mouse to go with it...

Not that I saw was there any of that here, I bet where I lived in WA I'd be able to find junk like that really easy though...
