another icon of my first few years in Seattle is closing.

Boeing Surplus Store to close

I bought a whole bunch of stuff at Boeing Surplus over the years--five or six computers to run NetBSD on, various weird things to make art out of, a whiteboard once.

Haven't been there in years, but it's still sad.

At least there's still the UW Surplus.

I'm gonna miss that place.

Ah, the new Boeing.
(Same as the old Boeing, just less cantankerously cool. And now with carbon fiber planes!)
