Here's some info:

http://web.mit.edu/w1mx/www/swapfest.shtml

It's mostly ham radio and computer but anything that goes "beep" or blinks
is generally on the menu.  Lots of crap but often some decent bargains - and
in your case you might actually be able to work out a decent swap for
something you need.

Thanks - but I'm not actually in Boston any longer.  :^(

But I can definitely get you some names - in fact I think that the Boston
Computer Exchange might still be on Temple Street - just a block or two
away.  The Free Software Foundation is over on Franklin Street as well.

There are others... one I just can't remember the real name of, but I know
it's the preferred one of several friends... "Tech Exchange" or "Tech for
Change" or something like that.

I used to volunteer at Virtually Wired when it existed (on Temple Street)
and I've kept in touch with that crowd - they know how to deal with old
hardware.  ;^)
