[codergeeks] Dell GX100 computer auction

[Gregory Foster]

Apparently, the company I work for will be holding an internal auction for 
their outdated Dell GX100 systems.  Specs are attached below.  Bidding 
starts at $50, and there are enough systems (91) such that bidding 
shouldn't get too furious.  There is a flexible limit of two systems per 
employee, but I think it should be no trouble getting around that by 
recruiting friends in the company to place bids for me.  If you are 
interested in throwing down some cash for a system, send me your request 
and your upper bidding limit.  I'll keep you posted subsequently 
throughout next week, with the auction ending on Friday.
