To ground for the night

Comfortably ensconced at the Hotel Sierra in downtown Redmond, WA. Very cushy digs and a screamin' deal with my MSFT Alumni card -- this is very much MSFT country around here... First auction tomorrow morning -- a scientific company that did work with hydrogen and energy. Considering that the two principals are both in their 70's, I am betting more a bunch of older geeks blowing through money having fun and getting some really good tax breaks. I like to Google the company names before the auction so I can get a better handle on what will be there. Second auction is Thursday morning - the sign company. There is a big CNC router that might be interesting if the price is right. There is also a small CNC metal engraver that looks really sweet and a laminator. Again, the price has to be really good for me to get them. Surf for a bit, maybe post something if it catches my eye. More tomorrow... Posted by DaveH at May 31, 2011 10:08 PM
