They're certainly useful for firewalls. I think we have something earmarked for it as a presentation? Would be a nice door prize then.

Not sure how useful a 2-port gigabit NIC would be these days, as it's pretty standard on-board. Unused USB keyboards might be welcomed, if they're decent. Not sure about old engineering books, but it may be worth a browse.
I guess it doesn't hurt to take a look and pick what seems reasonable.

Is it worthwhile for me to go see Vijay and grab some left over stuff to use as door prizes?
Let me know.

I have some 2-port gigabit NICs and USB keyboards (unused). Will those be appropriate as door prizes?
All the software engineering and security and telecom books that could have been good door prizes (were signed by the authors etc) were all given away already. Also, someone is planning to come over this weekend to take all the cables and SSDs, switches, old laptops and desktops and such.
But I still have a fair amount of engineering books (from the 1930’s onwards). If any of those are appropriate as door prizes, you can have those as well.
You’re welcome to come over and take a look. If your schedule permits, please let me know.
Thanks,
Vijay

Do you still have any left over engineering books or equipment to get rid of?
They might make for some good door prizes for our in-person MUUG meetings.
Let me know.

I have to get rid of a lot of engineering books (mostly old from 4 generations of engineers), computer tables, desks, couches, about a hundred 500GB, 1TB and 2TB hard drives, about 40 small SSDs, server rack and servers, book shelves, old desktops and laptops, iMacs and cables and so on. Please note that all but one of the systems have OpenBSD on them; not Windows or MacOS.
If anyone is interested to pick any or preferably all of them, please let me know at vsankar@foretell.ca so that the list is not polluted.
Thanks very much,
Vijay
