I should be able to get a couple of high spec machines from computer warehouse again, failing that i have some older (333) machines in various states of repair, plenty of older 3d graphics cards, i think i have a couple of voodoo 2 passthrough cards which you are welcome to use. Also an 8 port 10/100 hub your more than welcome to for the day should be able to get some patch leads if needed too.
