What Happens to $15M Worth of Data Center Gear when the Government Changes its Mind?
Dulles, VA (PRWEB) August 30, 2007 -- A decision by the Department of the Interior not to renew a 2005 IT lease with a minority contractor resulted in a warehouse full of new servers and data storage assets going to the auction block, according to Chris Rasmus of Rasmus Auctioneers, an online liquidator.
"It seams like a terrible waste of money," noted Rasmus. "Besides the $15 million in equipment, an additional $5 million in tech-support, user licenses, and support agreements have gone up in smoke."
The entire lot, which includes hundreds of Egenera blade servers, EMS data storage arrays, switchgear, and hardware is online to be sold to the highest bidder regardless of price.
The inventory will be sold by internet-only auction at 2 pm eastern on Wednesday, September 12, 2007. "The liquidation will be like an e-bay sale on steroids," Rasmus said, "instead of selling one item to one buyer, we will sell many to many."

American Ranching Family Wins 17-Year Battle with the Federal Government - Landmark decision in Hage v U.S. Issued by Federal Court of Claims
An epic 17-year battle between an American ranching family and the federal government has ended in favor of the family. The estates of Wayne and Jean Hage can finally claim a Fifth Amendment precedent-setting property rights victory. The court ruled that the Hages owned the water rights, ditch rights of ways, and range improvements on the federal grazing allotments. The court made clear that the government has the right to authorize grazing, but does not have the right to prevent the plaintiff from accessing their water rights on federal lands. Loren A. Smith, Senior Judge for the US Court of Federal Claims said, "As government seeks to change its policies concerning the purpose and use of public lands, private landowners have a valid c...

Government auctions are your answer if you want to drive a Jaguar or Lexus, a car that you have always wanted to own but could never afford. There have been many instances when we have seen a BMW or a Mercedes Benz on the road and they speed away before you can change gears in your car. The only thing that crosses our mind at that point is they must be very rich or a leading personality in the town to drive in such a luxurious car. For all you know, they might have picked up the car at a Government auction for $750 - $1000. Since many are not aware of these auctions, the select few take advantage and benefit from them. Most of the cars at the auction are Government seized cars that might have been brought in by the police or by others who...
