Hello all, I didn't have a chance to finish giving away my collection of old computer hardware before I left town. This stuff is all free to whoever wants it. The conditions are that you have to come to Bukit Batok to pick it up, and you have to do so at a time that will be convenient for my wife to be home to give it to you, or make some other arrangement that works for her, like leaving it outside the apartment if she is away or asleep.
Please contact me by email if you are interested in any of it. 1. "Runaway" IBM TPad 365XD P54C 100 MHz, 40 MB RAM, 540 MB HDD, CD-ROM (will not read CD-RWs), external floppy, 10 MBit PCMCIA NIC, 802.11 b PCMCIA NIC, NetBSD 5.1 i386 base system installed. Both main and backup batteries are dead => reset the time in the BIOS on each boot. One line of pixels on the display is out. For commandline only (which is about what this thing can handle, unless you are very creative) this is not much of an issue. Smartboot Manager boot floppy & install CD included. 2. "Blackbox" IBM TPad 765 L P5-233 MMX, 104 MB RAM, 6 GB HDD, CD-ROM (will not read CD-RWs), external floppy, 10 MB PCMCIA NIC, Debian 5.0.7 i386 base install + X and OpenBox, 3wm used for testing. Main battery is dead. Smartboot Manager boot floppy & install CD included. 3. Quadra 605 (upgraded to 68RC040 @ 25MHz => integral FPU), 36 MB RAM, 10 MBit NuBus NIC, external SCSI CD-ROM, ADB keyboard & 2 x mouse, Mac video to VGA adapter, Mac serial to DB 15 null modem cable (for like, I dunno, using the thing as a terminal?). At one point this was working fine w/ Mac OS 7.5.5 and whatever version of NetBSD 68k was current at the time. It boots and gives the "all is well" start up chime, but the LCD I connected it to remains blank. Probably the system cannot drive the LCD panel I connected it to. 4. "vulpes" HP Vectra PIII-866, 256 MB RAM, 70 GB HDD, CD-ROM, 3 x 100 MBit PCI NIC, 1 x 802.11 g wireless PCI NIC, FreeBSD 8.1 i386 installed and updated. Since the RAM is RDRAM, chances are you will never find an upgrade, much less be willing to pay for it. This machine served admirably as a firewall/wireless router for a while. 5. A box of "vintage components", most of it for laptops. PCMCIA cards (USB 2.0 ports, NICs, a SCSI card for an external CD-ROM or some such), small capacity laptop hard disks, etc. I prefer that you take the whole box, not just pick and choose.
