metatron Posted August 28, 2006 Posted August 28, 2006 metatron how did you manage to get loads of laptops, did you just take them off people who didnt want them anymore? I got them from behind a telephone exchange, when they where updating all the offices computers. Quote

metatron Posted August 28, 2006 Posted August 28, 2006 did you just walk past it 1 day and see all these laptops in the trash or something and thought O.o ill have them. I’ve gone dumpster diving since I was 14 for equipment and information and I still go with a few friends from 2600 meetings once a weeks. We usually head down to business/ industrial estates, telephone exchanges and behind computer shops and do a bit of war driving, phreaking, urban exploration and just have a laugh.We split up anything worth taking. When I got the laptops they also had around 50 phones, 50 PC’s (P3’s), 30 SPARCstation’s and a load of random equipment, I just wanted 30 of the laptops. Most of the time you don’t get that much equipment in one load, but we went out last night and got 6 PC’s, a KVM, 2 mobile phones and 3 3Com switches. I didn’t want any of it, but we had some fun.

1337n00b Posted August 28, 2006 Posted August 28, 2006 You can do alot with that machine as these posters have already proved. I have a machine like yours, it's a pos gateway. But I used it to learn the Fedora Core. :o And I need to go dumpster diving one of these days, I've never been. Maybe I can find some interesting stuff. Quote
