Teehee! Okay, but I'll have to check the provenance on it first. Maybe I stole it from somebody who was clever enough to get a copyright? That'd be tough.

When I worked for Dow, I was famous (infamous?) about collecting computing gear. One pundit even posited "White's Rules of Computer Acquisition:"

1. Whatever isn't nailed down is mine.
2. Whatever I can pry up isn't nailed down.

I left Dow 6 years ago, but the rules are still legendary there....
