It's a good thing Steven brought this up or I (and perhaps
others) may have never known.
Suppose someone is looking for a type of equipment there
that is not on display? How does one find out what might be
available?

You mentioned refurbishing. What is done? Clean it up and
apply Armor All?
I remember seeing systems complete with OS OS installed. Do
people ask for that?
I had an impression of thrift store during my visit. What
I'm hearing sounds like more than that of a thrift store.
What's the mission? Selling systems and functional units or
send the units to the breakup yard?
TIA
