[tech] Shelving cleanup - Stuff to throw out

[gozzarda at ucc.asn.au]

We already have some interest from members on various items. At this 
point the only stuff that looks like it might actually get thrown out is 
the readily replaceable stuff that we already have stocks of, like the 
IEC cables and power packs. The thin clients may also go, unless someone 
wants them, but I classify those as replaceable as we could easily get 
some raspberry pis or NUCs or something for pretty cheap. Similarly the 
10/100 switches take up huge amounts of space, we have a stock of 
gigabit switches, and we could replace them easily with new gigabit 
switches if need be.

The purpose of this email was basically to announce that the club needs 
to throw out something by the end of this week. I have decided that our 
old paper archives from our foundation are probably worth more to us 
than some second-had 10/100 switches.

Cheers,
Gozz
