[c-nsp] old Cisco 7000 hardware - Uses? value?

G'day all

We've got some old 7 slot Cisco 7000 boxes in various configurations (4 -
only with RPs and SPs, one with an SSP) plus some cards for them (a few
multimode AIPs, FIPs, 6 port EIPs).  I imagine that these are pretty useless
for production environments however.  Some are missing their flash cards
(and metal sleeves to suit - are these really important?).

I don't know whether these things have a resale value on them or not,
either.  If so, what are they worth?  Are the line cards useful for the 7500
series (maybe the AIPs could be put to use somewhere)?

How capable are such units?  I believe they only run 11.1? What sort of 
people would find practical (i.e. as a router, vs. a doorstop for a big 
door) uses for them?

Thanks,
Tristan
