I have 4 or 5 cases, mobo's, HDD's, ethernet cards, mice, keyboards, memory...

I basically have all the parts from all the computers I've had over the last few years and I want to sell them, even if it's just for a few bucks.

Parker, if you have a hard drive, I will take it. That is all I need to finish putting together a PC for my mom.

I was going to buy one this coming weekend, but what the hell.

I'm going to build a couple of full systems for my neighbor kid and the wife's cousin.

After that, I'll PM you with what I have left.

I'll take all the memory you have left,(if it's cheap) I work on old PC's all the time.

Heh, I was rummaging through my old parts box the other day and stumbled across a Cyrix CPU. lol, what a POS.

Heh. I still have a couple of Celeron 366A's. Those sonsabitches overclocked like nothing else. I had an Abit BP6 motherboard (dual socket 370), stuck 2 of those in, and they would OC to 605 each. That was badass, back in the day.

That's OK. I was just going ask you why the hell you had them and tell you to throw them away.

Computer Renaissance in Des Moines may buy old parts. They buy old computers. I doub't you'll get much, but it may be better than nothing.

I thought about that, but it's kind of a hassle and those guys aren't real reputable...

Heh.

Threads like these remind me that regardless of how geeky I get in my particular field...
