When he said the first story happened in 2002, I was expecting to hear a story about getting your workstation as a severence package.

I knew so many people during the crash who had the most random computer and office equipment. All 'acquired' when their company went out of business.

Aeron chair. Anthro cart. Sun Ultra 10, loaded. $4,000 Toshiba laptop. Occaisonaly some Cisco kit or a fairly beefy server. "This used to run <insert failed site> dot com."

How'd that work? Didn't the creditors or management care?
