Dumpster dive and got pretty good computer chairs in ok condition
I've thought about getting into it but I hear most startups in silicon valley just have their trash picked up and used by other startups in a bizarre corporate human centipede situation.

SAS controllers can accept SATA drives

>4GB ram
That's the average amount of memory posters have on this board and it's also why they complain firefox is slow.

Are you really telling me that a browser needs more than 4GB RAM?

RAM is what managing tabs is for. There are autists who have 100s of tabs open at a time and wonder why it's slow. At the most I have 8-10 tabs open.

Good for you
I've got a decent chair before.
Besides that I also found a perfectly good working 15W fender amp. It wasn't great and I already had 2 combo amps and a half stack, so I gave it to a buddy of mine who had a shit amp.
Not really /g/ related, but the chair lasted a while til my fat ass broke it lol.

I did a dive the other day. Found an AIO water cooling for AMD and a ethernet Hub.
They went back to the thrash.
I only kept the used tampons.
HP 1741A Oscilloscope (fantastic love it 10/10)
DL380 G4 Server (useless shit)
A Sine Wave generator and counter
A shitty C2D PC that I use for Media
And a few LCD screens and other misc. stuff.
Wish I could scrap one of those first gen i7 rigs I see dumpster divers talking about.
Now that would be a good find.

Nothing wrong with getting computer chairs.
There's little that can't be fixed with a deadly combination of cleaning solutions.
