[OT] 512Mbytes laptop RAM, free to a good home
Hello, I recently upgraded a macbook's RAM for a friend. I have no use for the TWO 256Mbytes 667MHz DDR2 SO-DIMM if anyone is interested please contact me off list. -- Delio
OT: old bits free to a good home
As per the subject line, old components free to anyone who wants them. One each of Compaq, Dell, Digital beige boxen, none currently bootable, Pentium I or II, RAM probably dodgy, FDD and CD readers probably OK, ethernet ports probably old and slow, no modems. Assortment of HDDs, unlikely to be larger than 2 or 4 GB. One horrible old keyboard. Also the neighbour's CRT, untested but claimed to work, Philips, looks to be 15. Contact me offlist if you want to save any or all from the dump. Relevance? Er, you might be able to use parts for a low-spec firewall/router running Linux. Cheers, Roy.

And a partridge in a pear tree. :-) Cheers Anton ps. you will also have to come and pick them up! email me off-list if you are interested. The lucky person will need to take them all cos my availability until we go is going to be limited. You can share the spoils after the fact though if necessary of course.

Free to a good home...
Continuing the spirit of giving... I've just upgraded a machine for a friend, and have the old motherboard here... I thought I might be able to use it, but decided I've got enough junk already :-). It's a gigabyte GA-586UX, with a pentium 133 and fan onboard. It's an ATX formfactor board, with 4*PCI, 4*ISA, 2 serial, parallel and no USB. It takes 72pin simms. The board is bare, so no ram, and no video. Just the M/B and chip. I just tested it, the board needs simms in pairs as many of the earlier ATX boards did, but appart from that it works fine. First come, first served etc. Cheers, Chris H.
