metatron Posted June 22, 2006 Share Posted June 22, 2006 Would you happen to have 2GB of DDR400 RAM going spare? Along with a FX-62? :D If you asked me last month I would have said yes, but know the only Ram I have laying around is just in case I have a problem with the RAM in one of my systems and I need to swap it out. I gave away 30 boxes, 4 Cisco switches, a Cisco firewall, an old rack and 8 old VOIP phones last month when I was having a clearout. I was using the boxes for something I was working on involving clustering but I finished that and they where just taking up needed space. They won’t FX-62 but they where all AMD Athlon 64’s Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sparda Posted June 22, 2006 Share Posted June 22, 2006 Tell me when you do a clear out (In England), if you are willing to send me stuff I'll gladly pay for postage. Right now I'm after the following: RAM Both SDRAM and DDR (Not DDR2 yet), any 939 CPU faster then a 3200+, any thing else that is sutable for posting that you don't want.

harrison Posted June 22, 2006 Share Posted June 22, 2006 Man, I used to have a bunch of computers to which (in this forum thread) I would be able to post a long list of all my OS' and such. But quite frankly I am happy to say that I sold off all my computers and I now have only two remaining. My Apple Powerbook (older model, firs edition Ti) and my IBM (yes, before they sold to Lenovo) ThinkPad. My Powerbook is obviously running OSX, but I rarely use it. I know it's sad to have a nice Apple sitting around, but I don't have time to use computers for pleasure anymore, and it's slower than my ThinkPad so I don't do any work on it. My ThinkPad is dual booting Windows XP Pro and Gentoo. I must say that lately I have been spending all my time in Windows because of work.
