Buying and giving away hardware

December 17, 2008

I am looking for:

  1. A RISC PC. 64-bit makes me happy. Debian Lenny, at least, must work. Low power consumption makes me happy. Please don't try to sell me an ancient SPARC machine for the same price that you bought it for. That isn't funny, and it is a policy that if you intend to do that you must post it on ebay.
  2. Someone who wants a few old peripherals (CD-RW drives, monitors,...)

Details next week, I have a fever now, and I also am busy over the weekend.

PS: Sometimes Markdown makes me think, "Wow! That's great!". At other times it makes me curse. In the latter case, it's usually because I have horrible formatting skills.

You should tag your posts "Tech" and "Non-tech", so I can choose which ones I want to read.

But if I did that, you may not suddenly exclaim, "Hey, a friend of mine wanted one of those!" when someone you know does mention wanting to sell anything mentioned above. That is less than optimal.

Oh, and how is the fever? Not that it prevents you from being what you call "shy"..

I'll get back at you for that. I definitely will.
