I'll throw away stuff that is ubiquitous, but in my perception even a SPARCstation 4 is something of a rare machien. I enjoy getting systems, playing with them, but when that's done, they get shelved and sometimes given away or traded. So the answer to your question is: I want to rescue them from being thrown away until another caretaker is found.


This is why I'm still trying to find a home for my surplus-to-my-needs 
X2200M2 (and why frankly I still lament the demise of my X4540 THOR, 
power-hungry though it was).
