Hi All, I have 2 PCs that are free to a good home.
I am going to drop them into my office tomorrow in central Southampton and I will wipe both and install a fresh copy of both on Ubuntu to ensure they are both working and nothing further. PC1; 2.0Ghz Intel Core 2 Duo 8GB DDR2 RAM 250GB SATA HDD 600W PSU nVidia GT210 PCI-E graphics card DVD-RW Motherboard has on-board sound, USB and wired Ethernet. PC2; 2.15Ghz Inter Core 2 Duo 4GB DDR RAM 80GB SATA HDD 300W PSU Missing a graphics card I think I have a spare DVD-RW on my desk at work I can put it in Motherboard has on-board sound, USB and wired Ethernet. PC1 is in a typical PC sized case (Is this called midi ATX?). PC2 is in a massive tower. I was a home media server. It has 8x 3.5" HDD bays and 3 or 4x 5.25" DVD drive bays. PC1 is 5 years old and PC2 is 4 years old (so both have wear on their cases, PC2 has more scratches than PC1). Neither are mean computing machines. If you want a basic machine for doing something basic PC1 is for you. If you want to mod PC2 for a home server, that case is what you need. I will follow this up with some pics tomorrow. Also free to a good home; -1x PCI sound card, Sound Blaster Audigy 2 -1x PCI SATA expansion card, Adaptec something with 4x SATA Connections. -I also have many SATA cables to chuck out due to decommisioning PC2 as an old media server and many 1x Molex to 2x SATA power connectors. All for collection only from central Southampton, must be this week. I'm moving so it all needs to go ASAP! I won't be giving away parts of the PCs as I'm in a rush to get rid of them, they must go whole. Cheers, James. -- Please post to: Hampshire@mailman.lug.org.uk Web Interface: https://mailman.lug.org.uk/mailman/listinfo/hampshire LUG URL: http://www.hantslug.org.uk --------------------------------------------------------------
