Great Surplus Stores?

An old friend of mine, Todd San Martin, passed on a link to me of a great surplus place in Orlando that has lots of old nasa gear and more, and it made me think that it's probably time to talk about great surplus shops again. Not just the aforementioned [0]skycraft or the well known [1]Weird Stuff , although feel free to dicuss those too, but I thought it would make a cool post as a jumping off point for people to talk about their favorite shops especially those near aerospace facilities, both online and off.

A College Without Microsoft?
http://slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=03/03/12/0548224

An anonymous reader asks: "My grandfather is the president of a well-known undergraduate-only college of about 7,000 students. He tells me that an alumnus has agreed to donate $2.4 million initially (and up to $800,000 each succeeding year for 10 years) to the school for computer equipment and staff if the school agrees not to renew any contract and to buy no products or services (either directly or through an intermediary like Gateway) from Microsoft. I'm told that this isn't the enormous amount of money that it sounds like and that a change-over to non-Microsoft products would be costly. I think it'd be great for college students to use computers apart from Microsoft, but I'm told that the board will look at the decision in terms of cost, not for benefit to the students. Does the Slashdot community have any points that I can give my grandfather to present to the Board next month?"

The ISP, [0]DONOBi claims the personal account is 'unlimited,' but since they don't allow servers, and have a business account which is capped at 5Gb/month ($3/Gb addtl), I think we can guess at what their idea of 'unlimited' is.

psmon 1.0.0
http://freshmeat.net/releases/116064/

psmon is a Perl script which can be run as a stand-alone program or a fully functional background daemon, capable of logging to syslog with customisable email notification facilities. The user defines a set of rules in an Apache-style plain text configuration file. These rules describe what processes should always be running on the system, and any limitations on concurrent instances, TTL, and maximum CPU/memory usage of processes. psmon scans the UNIX process table and, using the set of rules defined in the configuration file, will respawn any dead processes, and slay or "deal with" any aggressive or illegal processes.

PyHtmlTable 1.7
http://freshmeat.net/releases/116121/

PyHtmlTable is a class for Python CGIs to generate HTML tables on the fly. It allows you to set individual row and cell attributes via arbitrary dictionaries, and span rows and columns. It autogrows the table if cells are set outside its initial range. It allows dynamic insertion of new rows and columns anywhere in the table, and allows bulk population of table data via arrays to arbitrary locations in the table. It also provides default cell attributes for tablewide uniformity and the ability to override these on a cell-by-cell basis.

S-terminal 0.5
http://freshmeat.net/releases/116080/

S-terminal lets you create a secure X terminal. Regular X terminals pass unencrypted data between you the remote machine. S-terminal creates an encrypted tunnel through which all X traffic passes. It replaces the remote xdm login screen with a local application that collects username and password, then sets up an ssh tunnel to the remote host and starts a session. It is highly configurable both in appearance and behavior, and deployed S-terminals can be remotely administered. Best of all, it can be added to a KNOPPIX CD to create an instant, bootable, secure X terminal CD.
