On the topic of new computers...
Sanfam
I like clocks.
in Zocalo v2.0
I'm in the market for older computer parts. Specifically, motherboards, processors, memory. By older, I'm thinking...Athlon XP ~2000+. Maybe higher, maybe lower. Now, a processor I can get fairly cheap from a number of sources, but the real trouble has been the motherboard. eBay is loaded with craptacular product listings, and craigslist is hit-or-miss. So I'm starting the search for gear!
Anybody here have anything in this realm they'd be willing to sell, perhaps even give away?

Hate to see what you think of my 1.4 thunderbird....
seriously ill buy the whole setup excluding monitor if you want if its reasonable. Let me know or pm.
and the mobo it's on...can't remember what it is. I'll have to get back to you on that one.
I also have used lian li anodized aluminum case. Its rough around the edges, but a decent case.
[B]We have legacy coming out our ears here at times. I'm sure I can arrange a 486 or an uber fast P1/P2 for shipping outside the UK :D We recently decomissioned a dual P3 which a buddy of mine got. Ideal for a home server. [/B][/QUOTE]
I recently upgraded my home server from a P200MMX to an Athlon 1800 solely because it was too slow to compile GCC 4. :)
Oldest computer kit I have is a BBC Micro and an Apple II Europlus, with original paddles so I can play pong on it :p
The lian-li, however, does not. I suspect it is a bit above budget for what I seek.
[B]I'm getting ready to replace my AthlonXP 2800+....(Ye old 32bit proc)

Well, if Sanfam turns his nose up on it I'd be interested in talking to you about it...
;)
$15 - XP2000+ (You can pick up a 2800+ for $30 brand new on Newegg)
$100 - mobo (probably high)
$45 - 2x256MB (newegg price for slightly faster version of same memory)
$30 - GeForce 4 Ti4200 (Newegg has the GeForce 5 series at that price)
$60 - Altec Lansing speakers - I know what I paid for my 5.1 set from them
$60 - 160GB Hard Drive (Newegg price)
$60 - Power Supply
$80 - Case (I assume it's a nice case?)
Total: $450
You might get $50-100 more if it has an optical drive.
That makes you about $1000 overpriced for buying the components brand new, Arethusa.
If you want the motherboard, case and sound card, Ill just send it to you. Give me like 25 bucks for shipping, and its yours.
