"one man's trash other man's treasure" trade / giveaway thread

Barebones in what respect???

the chassis, the motherboard, the CPU, the wireless chipset (probably), the display and the keyboard. That’s pretty much it. Everything else you have to get yourself.

why not put on here it?

I’d be interested in this. My nephew’s stepson brought me his laptop that appears the motherboard is shot. But replacement of the mobo is going to cost 50% of the value of the laptop… so not really worth it, not knowing if anything else was damaged when the mobo got fried (Acer aspire E-1-510) .
But maybe with yours I could piece something together with the others I have laying around?

Any laptop worth 100ish USD would be fine with me.

Any old macbook would be awesome

For anyone looking, I also have a netgear 802.11n AP that someone gave me new/unused. They got it as an Amazon review incentive and never tried it out.

Ping @KemoKa73 he has a T400, or a drawer full, that are just barebones.

Name of item: 2x QLogic QLE 7340
condition of item: Used
at least one picture: later, have no time right now.
No Defects, except flawed product.

Description:
Single Port QDR Infiniband Host Channel Adapter.
8x Pcie 2.0
Up to 32Gbits over infiniband.
Those Cards only work in linux and do only support Infiniband.
iPoiB is horrible: 400Mbits maximum in my testing.

Use-cases are fairly limited due to drivers and supported protocols.
No iSer support. You’d need to use SRP to make use of iB.

So, I’ve got a few items that I could contribute.

Looking For

1600X1200 screens, CRT prefered but will take 2006 and on LCD’s if anyone knows they are made after 06 (before 06 I don’t trust the manufac’s). Can trade some things, will pay shipping.


5:4 laptop’s of Desktop Pentium 4 and up


GTX 480 / 580. You know, the godawful ones that light on fire.


Floppy disks. Like as many as possible.

Can Trade

Stuff? Honestly I’d have to look. Will see what I have to offer for whoever has what.

Requests can clutter the thread should they be allowed?
The chance of someone throwing away a specific item for free is very slim

  • Allow item requests
  • Do not allow item requests

I’m Interested.

Which Model? Also interested.

Pretty sure I have a Galaxy 480 if you’re still interested in trade.

Not sure why’d you want these, but I have a small stack of them I think.

I have a 480 sitting doing nothing if someone is in UK. Last time the rig was started there were no problems although it was 6 or so months back. Also an I7 920 I beleive is in there too.

I have a core 2 duo but find myself in need of a board for it. I dont need ram or anything else. Happen to have a loose LGA775 board you could part with? If you dont I will still take the combination.

See adrians comment above

Will get details/photos this afternoon.

Probably. Will check.

I’m interested in this. What’d you want for it?

Got a couple untested SAS drives here out of some servers I got at xmas.

If you’re in lower michigan I have an HP Proliant ML370 gen 3 or 4 that at this point is just a burden. Works though. I used it as a game server. Was gunna sell it but all the buy offers are 14 yr old kids with no transportation.

Somewhere I have a phenom X4 955 that works and a board to match that doesn’t. I mean it works, but the x16 slot is loose.

If you’re building an xp or 98 machine dor fun I have way too much ram that I will never use, along with 478 and 775 pentium 4’s that will also probably not be used.

IBM transnote here with original paper. These seem to be rare and worth money to the right person but there aren’t any collectors in MI it seems.

Also some laptops that I’m just hunna chuck. P3 and M stuff that I was experimenting with.

And finally I have like 5 copies of solaris 04/08 and I really only need one.

Oh yeah and I have a billion sun microsystems keyboards.

Might be able to use one of those keyboards.
