A couple of points......  :)

A) WHen Central Missouri State University sold off some surplus macs the
pallets went for over $100 each (yes, this was an auction) while pallets of
older PCs went for under $50 (varied by how old they were).

B) Man I'd hate that electric bill!!

   It is no secret (nor should it come as any surprise) that humankind's
most noble impulses often surface during the most trying of times, that
human spirit rises to the challenge when faced with adversity, that human
strength is born from human failings...Is it any wonder, then, that the
SDF-1 crew became a tighter family after the fortress had been exiled than
it had before?

     From the log of Captain (later Admiral) Henry Gloval
