Yes, the one in Brooklyn is used. However the San Francisco Bay Bridge
is currently undergoing rebuilding, so I've got a deal on a much better
bridge, rebuilt to earthquake specifications <smile>.
On the other side, when we rebuild RaQs to our spec before putting them
into dedicated RentaRaQ service (512 mb, two 40-gig drives), we take out
lots of sticks. The 64s end up getting donated to a needy person
running an old machine with 32MB, but I put the 128s into machines at my
home, where they've all continued to work fine.
However the key is "at home". Not for business reliability. Nor to
friends, unless you like spending a lot of time at their house, or the
beer they serve while you're troubleshooting their system which you just
upgraded last week <smile>.
(The 64s all go to people who serve good beer <smile>.)
