Mr Entity is the IT bloke at a school
one day he took it upon himself to clear out the cupboard in the ICT room.
Now people had started putting stuff in there since the beginning of computing and had never emptied it. Going through it was like going through layers of time.

Way towards the back, past the copies of Encarta 98 and Logo were two BigTraks. Two of them, in boxes, with the instructions about how to link them into the curriculum. School said that they didn't want them, and doubted they even worked. So they both came home and out of two non working Big Traks came one working one.

Throwing stuff out means taking responsibility.
Not everyone is cut out for making such decisions.

One of my earliest jobs was as a lab tech in a comprehensive that was being renovated.
ALL the stuff from the labs was being skipped. I got a 1/4 scale model human skull and an antique brass microscope.
Well done to Mr Entity on his find.
:)
