It's the Second Annual Old Computer Crapstravaganza! We've got:

- PCI/ISA NICs
- PCI video cards
- SCSI cards
- CDROMs
- keyboards
- mice
- fans
- power cords
- cables
- laptop bags
- a Playstation 1
- giant CRTs
- old cell phones
- cordless phones
- and MORE MORE MORE!

We've even got a few full systems too: a Dell PowerEdge 2300 server and an HP P2 server (perfect for running IPCop/Smoothwall/m0n0wall/whatever). Almost all of this hardware is working, and much of was even recently tested.

Come on down to 1110 Lady's Slipper Ct, Apt E in the Wildwoods apartment complex, just off Jones Franklin Road. Call 859-6082, PM, or post for more information.

Google maps: http://maps.google.com/maps?hl=en&safe=off&resnum=0&q=1110+ladys+slipper+ct&um=1&ie=UTF-8&sa=N&tab=wl

If you're looking for awesome hardware, it's not here. If you're looking to build a router or play around with Linux or something, check it out.

BONUS: get a few nVidia M&Ms with your crap! Really.

Added:
- some small hard drives
- a USB power slab (bad battery, still works as surge protector)
- stereo receiver which MAY OR MAY NOT have a defunct bee hive in it (works somewhat)
- several P1 machines
- ATX case

I will be in today. I'll update the thread if I need to leave. You can call first to be sure - 919-859-6082.

EDIT: About the laptop bag -- My roommate has already claimed it. You can stop by anyway to see if you want anything else.

I don't recall having a key for it...we had that open last night, and were typing on it, so I don't see how it could be locked.

Is it a keyboard lock or a case access lock or what?

If I remember right, you press in on the two indentations on the sides of the front and rotate it outward. The front then pops off the hinges. The sides are removed by unscrewing the revealed thumbscrews.

If at first you don't succeed, apply additional force. Crowbars are cheap at Big Lots.

The Crapstravaganza is closed for the night. If you want something we might have, call or AIM ASAP. It's going into dumpsters this week.
