Subject: [GO-Tech] ThinkGeek giving away broken electronics

 

Hi everyone!

I thought I'd pass this along in case any of you are interested. My favorite online store for geek goodies, thinkgeek.com, is giving away defective returned electronics to makers and hackers to tear apart and use in projects. Details are in their blog post below:

You can pick up stuff in Colombus (road trip, anyone?) or there are some shipping options, especially if you pay shipping.

Enjoy!

GO-Tech (formerly NotBAGO) is a meeting for Ann Arbor area readers of Make Magazine, Circuit Cellar, Home Shop Machinist, Kevin Kelly's Cool Tools, slashdot, etc.  That is, people who are interested in and make things using technology, whether that's a metal cutting lathe or a Python script.  A kind of generalized mixture of CerealBar, DorkBot, Oxford Geek night, and Portland Machinist Guild.  We have machinists, electrical engineers, software folks, industrial control types, and so on.  We share projects, information about tools and ideas, and connect with like-minded people.
