    When will /. editors learn not to directly link to sites in the articals? With so many ways to mirror pages available, why must they do this? Just because of one man's neglect, some startup called 'eBay' is going to have to deal with a dead server...

    He's probably doing this because Gamestop offered him $50 for it all :)

    The owner of the truck managed to get the flux capacitor working, but it was intermittent and kept stalling. :-P

    "I used to own a used video game store, but recently we went out of business because we sold all of our good games."

    Hmm, that would make sense. I love this comment in his auction listing: "... game systems aren't my specialty..."

    Aren't his specialty?! Sweet tap-dancing Buddha, this is supposed to be just a minor sideline? What's his real interest? Does he have four hundred thousand RC cars out back, or what?
