I'd love to see someone buy the lot, get a truck and play santa,
driving across the country dropping them off... but it would be cheaper
to just buy them on the surplus market I suspect...

But they are great 21" monitors (if they are in good condition, a lot
that size as-is, I dunno... these sat on the desks of many upset
employees...).

On an unrelated topic:

I saw the new James Bond movie last night, and it was, uhm, over the
top... It was "James Bond meets Batman"... The special effects were
good, but all the way home, my wife & I kept thinking off *all* the
things that were too far-fetched (IIRC, the "toys" in earlier Bond
films had a chance of being real, not so in this one...).
