  Yah, stuff like this is why many sysadmins become incorrigible pack
rats.  The lusers inevitably come back with requests to do something
they swore they would never need again, years ago.  Or one encounters
a living specimen of something long thought to be extinct.

  A few years ago, I had occasion to use the old 8-bit ISA Western
Digital VGA card I had squirreled away to get a console on a voice
mail system.  My PFY minion didn't even know that WDC ever made
non-storage products.  :)
