Some teak outdoor furniture. A bench, two chairs and one armed chair all matching in a modern-ish style. The bench has some discard damage (i.e. something that seems have have occurred as it was thrown away) but that is easily fixable, we think. Otherwise they are all solid and just need a clean and maybe some teak oil. We could use these but we have a bunch of this type of stuff already so these may become available after some consideration.
A Peg Perego Prima Pappa rocking high chair. What a stupid idea! Rocking one's small offspring while they are eating seems like a recipe for a mess. Chair is in OK shape but has a hole in the fabric seat liner. We shall see what occurs here, probably will be sold on the list of craig, to some people the rocking element is a premium feature or some such.
A Gateway Pentium 4 with WinME installed, all present and correct on the initial physical inspection at least. Machine belonged to an adolescent male, here are some humdrum google searches, after having removed the ego driven self-searches to protect the former owner from your specific (as opposed to non-specific) ridicule.

Not sure about reason for discard yet but the disk seems to have some not-quite-fatal-yet issues. Closer inspection of the Recycled dir shows a discarded Morpheus install with a bunch of music, images and porn movies, notably several Jenna Jameson offerings. Evidence of stuff no longer present is also plentiful in db files.
Some random PVR, not a tivo. It seemed to have issues coming up properly but when we pulled the 80G HD inside that seemed to work fine. OK then, the rest of it is junk and we prepare to see what can be found in terms of cool TV programming on this thing. Exactly one recording was present, and it was 250 seconds of TV snow. Of course it is not even well encoded snow because no PVR manufacturer sets up their mpeg2 parameters to be useful for snow. Download the 150M file here, if you are really curious. Play it directly from your command line with:

A jogging stroller with ripped fabric in two critical places we fear. Oh no, a genuine reason for discard! Never mind, we have another in stock that has a cracked aluminium wheel mount area. We were going to weld that up but it seems a lot faster to take the (almost new) fabric from that one and put it on this frame. The new chimera stroller is now on the list of craig, trying to feed the family. Fine and dandy.
The VIA server from the other day has no graphics on it so I resolved to find a PCI graphics card for it (no AGP on the board). Seek and ye shall receive. Pic may come soon.
A Cosco Alpha-Omega car seat for young offspring that is in perfect shape and feature laden, in a good way. We really have no use for it though so we will be floinking it off on the list of craig. Available at heavy discount to readers of this page.
This is thoroughly obselete but we picked it up for our friends who own a CD store, and yes they seem to be thriving. They are pretty much series-of-tubo-phobic. They do like CD changers though for the store and requested such from us. It even being a DVD changer and they being in the process of expanding into more DVDs I bet they will want a TV from us next....
A 1U short server with a Via twin CPU motherboard in it. This seems like a pretty nice machine so we may make it into a nice little backup server or some such in the basement. It is not fully tested as yet but so far we have great hopes for this particular piece of garbage.
A Babytrend double stroller in perfect condition apart from a 1.5 in hole in the fabric in the side of one the of the seats. It sort of looks like a cleaned up cigarette burn but larger. Who knows what the modern parents of today allow their horrible offspring to do.......
