If you keep your ear to the ground it's not uncommon that
you can get Explorer h/w for free (or at least for the
cost of shipping).  For example, our lab recently got
bequeathed a 32Mb colour Explorer II with 3 discs and a
tape (we had to pay to ship it up from La Jola).

Amongst other things it also came with an LX board, which
we certainly have no need of.  For all I know we would
part company with it for the shipping cost or something
nominal to keep Stanford's books happy.
