There were a few "left over" unused Amiga 3000's in the back rooms of the animation lab at my Uni'.

I probably could've taken one and no one would've cared but I'm too damn honest. Besides it wasn't worth getting kicked out over, if someone did care.

I asked around to see if I could buy one but none of the staff knew how to proceed.  Sad thing is they probably got thrown out as junk, when I checked a few months later they were gone.

At Uni' a lot of older computer technology would get put away in these rooms waiting to go to the junkyard, hardly any of it went back into use.  Along with the Amigas, there was all sorts of cool 80's- 90's stuff including Acorns and SGI machines and a massive cell animation rig.  

It still bugs me a bit that I didnt find a way to rescue some of that stuff.
