Expensive Garbage

TOPCON ET-1 PRECISION TOTAL STATION

With a name like that, How could this thing not be AWESOME?!?!? well, infact it is not awesome, but it is insanely expensive... http://cgi.ebay.com/TOPCON-ET-1-PRECISION-TOTAL-STATION,-SURVEYING_W0QQitemZ110459940669QQcmdZViewItemQQimsxZ20091121?IMSfp=TL091121186006r28353
Anyway, apparently TOPCON is a leading manufacture of professional surveying equipment, and the TOPCON ET-1 is a pretty serious surveying tool. It has a laser guided balance system, and several LCD screens, its also not cheap.

KRETZTECHNIK Ultrasonic Opthalmoscope SERIES 7100 MA
sorry no picture found
SO based on what I found for this jem of technology, I learned that Kretztechnik is a really old austrian ultra sound technology company that had a major part in developing ultrasound instruments for medical use. I also learned that Opthamology pertains to eyes, so Im guessing that the SERIES 7100 MA is some sort of Ultrasound instrument for looking inside the eye.

ParkerVision CameraMan II CAM-2112-AIN with Adapter

When I saw this thing at surplus, i thought it was some cool camera system, then i looked it up and found that it is a camera system, but its not really that cool... basically its just a camera hooked up to some motors that allow it to be remote controlled. It can tilt, pan, swivel and zoom. although this seems very coool, its application is not that cool... its used to record lectures and classes at UF... So i guess it is cool to all those buisness majors that are able to watch lectures from their homes thanks to this handy Cameraman.
