Having donated a large amount of (to me) obsolete to various ngo's various
african countries it's only fair to say that the reason this stuff is so
darned expensive there are the absurd customs duties levied in various
countries which view this as a stable revenue source. Frequently these
exceed 10-20% of whatever they asses the value of the goods to be rather
than say, what I consider the replacement value of a 486 with 16mb for
shipping and insurance purposes. This amounts to highway robery by armed
bandits masquerading as government officials.
