Interesting junkyard find..
 

--Went to the local junkyard yesterday and saw what my untrained eye
would call an electron microscope. Not sure of value, but they're probably
selling it for the price of the scrapmetal, as it's currently being rained
on. Heh. Lotsa some kind of wafer fab line stuff, too. Heh.

Wherever it came from, they probably paid to have it hauled off, too!

Have you got a picture? It could be an "Electron Beam Recorder" that
my compnay used to sell. How many mechanical pumps and how many
diffusion pumps did it have? How big was the cabinet?

And MOST companies, when they pay to have that stuff removed, pay to
have it DESTROYED and taken out od circulation. A pitty really,
because there is a LOT of very useable technology destroyed every day.
