Hi all, I also have an old AMD Athlon desktop machine with erupted capacitors to sort out (Soltek SL-75DRV2)(no monitor sorry). This is now on trademe (Listing #: 328161960). Please let me know asap if you have a GOOD soldering skill and are willing to adopt it or otherwise I will take it down to eDay next Saturday. Regards, Sam

Hello all,
I've got two Toshiba Satelite Laptops to give away, both very old.
First laptop 8M of RAM. I can get Tom's Rescue Boot Floppy for work on it but haven't manage to get Basic Linux installed though its been a few years since my last attempt.
Second laptop 32M of RAM. I can get Damn Small Linux to work on it using a CD drive. The screen is damaged on the right side - about an 8mm strip of black pixels.
I also have a desktop computer case that formally housed a Pentium III motherboard circa 2001. You're also welcome to the motherboard but it no longer goes.
I've also got some SCSI components and tape drives if anyone is interested.
All these will end up at eDay for recycling if no one would like them.
Please contact me off list if you're interested.
Cheers,
Chris
