How do I get those old machines when they're surplused?.

On programming, our machines have typically been my old laptops. Which I'm currently supplying four with to the team all bought in the past six years (don't ask). We recently got some Dell latitude 630s and some surplus desktops in and we'll see what happens with those. For the most part, we've relied on personal laptops of students/mentors.
