I have just been to see a chap who had offered some old PC's on Freecycle. I went along expecting old, old PC's.... 386's and possibly 486's if I was lucky. :-)))) well, I came away with 3 PC's which although old are most certainly usable with Linux as two have 1.7ghz CPU's and the other I don't yet know but it's better. I also got a nice little server of as yet unknown spec'. The guy had got scanners, HP multi function office set ups (printer, scanner, copier combined) and a load of monitors. It is quite amazing what turns up :-) At the very least I can now do some serious upgrading to my various units. -- ============================================== Don't take it to the tip recycle it via the Freecycle(r) Network.
