Hey! Look! Another person selling their crap to the *cough* pawns *cough* fine people of PFF! (j/k, of course. I luv ya all.)
Okay, I don't have anything in particular picked out. However, I will update this post as I come up with ideas. Everything here (with the exception of complete systems like the Ice Cube) is under 100 bucks. Some of it under 10 bucks but should be combined with others to save shipping
I'm in urgent need of money and have way too much stuff stacked up. I need to put gas in my Fiero's tank and get that bearing/suspension problem fixed (wheel bumping slightly as it turns... I'll post in Tech later) before it becomes a big problem. That, plus being within 100 bucks of maxing out my credit card makes me a little uncomfortable.
Until the morning and I pick out some various things to sell, I have a few overall pics of my (very messy) room for you to peruse through. All the crap here is potentially for sale, or questioning for further info
Most importantly, I gladly take PayPal (they're not enough of a rip off for me to care about and it's worth it for the convenience) and ship via USPS Priority unless you really want it to get smashed up and lost via UPS Ground. I'll also do Parcel Post if you want to save some bucks. For the small items I'll send via First Class so it gets there quick and doesn't cost more than a buck or two.
So go ahead, start shooting questions and/or offers for this crap, and I'll get to them in the morning
-------------------------------------------------- First addition (from another post): XP Home Edition full (what's upgrade?), one SP0 (original) and one SP1 but both can be slipstreamed to SP2 using nLite. Unfortunately I think both have already been used on computers I've sold (d'oh on me for not giving them the discs). But one of them is used on a computer I sold to that Navy guy, and he still hasn't picked it up. It sure isn't being used for what I built it for. I should just swap XP Pro Corp under it and sell this copy =) 40 bucks?
The hard drives I have are all IDE (except some SCSI/SCA out in the shop, I'll go over those if anyone's interested). In this stack: I have, top to bottom, a 20mb, a 6gb Maxtor with bad sectors at the top of the drive, 15gb IBM that's all dead, a perfect 30gb Quantum, and a perfect 40gb Maxtor. The case is empty. On the bed I have two 20gb Maxtors, one has bad sectors at the top that can be easily partitioned-out. I also have a 60gb Western Digital in my TiVo that can be pulled (since we don't use it anymore). Prices are in order listed: $0 (free, who wants it?), $0, $0, $20, $25, $15 (one w/ bad), $17 (good), $40. In here are 7x 4gb HDDs in a RAID. Each has been tested using MHDD and are flawless. $5 each. I swear the combination of them in a striped RAID-0 is faster than a Raptor. Info: http://hostfile.org/hdds.txt
The PCI cards on the floor... let's see here. A Belkin 802.11G PCI card, $15. 128mb Gigabyte Radeon 9250 AGP 8x, $20. AGP Rage IIC card (dunno the RAM), $0. nVidia GeForce2MX, probably 32mb, $5. Various assorted 56k PCI modems, $2 each. ZyXel Gigabit 32/64-bit PCI ethernet cards, $25 each and I have two of 'em with original boxes (lightly used! =) ). VIA 4/5-port USB 2.0 adapter cards, $10 each and I have two (one still in packaging, other lightly used). 32mb PC66 RAM sticks, $2 and I have two. 64mb PC100 stick, $3.
Also have a complete Pentium 3/1GHz system board with RAM sitting here, 60 bucks for the whole mess. Includes 192mb RAM, 1GHz Pentium-3 CPU (Coppermine), and the famous Intel D815EEA system board with onboard ethernet, audio, and video. Also has an AGP slot, AGP 4x I believe, and 4 PCI slots. I've also got a Dell version of the same board, with a Dell ATX connector (NOT the same as a standard ATX!), no onboard video, audio, or ethernet, and that's 10 bucks.
All items listed work to the best of my knowledge
Pictures! ------------------------------------- Second addition: The PC next to the VCR on the shelf (the Ice Cube): 2.4GHz Pentium 4 Northwood, 533 FSB, 512k L2 512mb RAM, PC3200 40gb HDD (only because it's a number-crunching rig, I can upgrade that) Pinnacle PCTV Pro tuner card Integrated Intel graphics crap (again only because it's a number-crunching rig) Available AGP 4x slot (4x or 8x, can't remember) 8x DVD-RW drive 4x USB 2.0 ports (2 on back, 2 on front) 3x 1394 ports (2 on back, 1 on front) Surround sound chip with optical S/PDIF in/out on back and front Built in 10/100 LAN Blue-LED CPU fan, blower fan in back And that's about it. I was hoping to get about 400 bucks for it if I were to sell it.
I have one Mad Dog 1394/USB 2.0 enclosure that's missing its power supply (I'm waiting on it to be shipped to me... long story short the guy's in the navy and he forgot to bring it with him, and I offered to trade it when he got here. I also have a 2.5" USB enclosure, self powered (depending on the drive), and a 2.5" USB enclosure with media reader/copier and battery pack. SOMEWHERE in this room I have a IDE-to-USB cable though... anyway, obviously the Mad Dog one's not for sale (yet), but the 2.5" ones are. 10 bucks for the plain one, and 40 bucks for the reader/copier. 60 if you want me to throw in the 20gb 2.5" drive I'm using in it now (the plain one is empty and sitting in its original box). --------------------------------------------------------------- Third addition... Some "Here, take 'em!" items nobody asked about
You should be able to identify them, so I'll just list them. A Memorex TravelLink "media bridge". It lets you copy files between common Flash formats without a computer. Using its screen you can copy individual files, or the whole card to USB stick, or vice versa. Or between USB sticks - swap files during class. =) Runs on 3 AAA batteries. 30 bucks for it. Next, the USB 2.0/1394 PC card. Brings your old laptop up to speed. 15 bucks. A Netgear 802.11b wireless card. Simple connectivity, 10 bucks. A Netgear 802.11 "Super G" 108mbps wireless card. Fast, simple connectivity with craploads of range. 30 bucks for it. A 16/10/40x Yamaha CD burner. Don't push the tray in, use the button please. But CD burners that can still burn a quality CD are rare and this is one. 15 bucks for it. A Netgear 802.11G (Super G? Dunno...) wireless/wired bridge. Connects to a wireless network and patches it into your wired network - great for bridging hacked-together networks. Needs a standard screw-on antenna for Linksys or other brands (it was "hacked" by my friend to add the screw-on port). I can pull one off the Belkin card... 20 bucks.

Har @ Y'all. Yeah, McDonald's is my kitchen... I tried cleaning up a little trash before the pictures but I missed a lot.
mtncrasher: Unfortunately the blinds aren't mine... otherwise you'd have a deal. XD

Formula88: Not a chance in a frozen Hell I'm ever selling that picture.
That's about it for now... I'll update the post in a minute with some specific items
Is that Windows XP home? Upgrade or full? What kind of hard drives do you have lying around there? What are all those PCI cards laying around, or those video cards?
My room looks worse than that, if I had a camera I'd take pics
XP Home Edition full (what's upgrade?), one SP0 (original) and one SP1 but both can be slipstreamed to SP2 using nLite.

I also have one complete (well, I'll have to find the panel screws, no biggie) 5.25" USB/1394 enclosure...

That thing next to the VCR is a Canon LiDE 30 usb-powered scanner. It comes in uber handy... no warm up, no power cords to grab when I need to scan something, and since it's the only scanner I have, no selly there either. Sorry!
The BDU jacket's just my size and has my name on it and it's no selly either of course... :P

Try this for selling your stuff craigslist.org and I bet you could find a decent bike there too, talk about excellent gas mileage assuming you don't actually drink gasoline.

Eeee... why does everyone always ask for the things I need to keep?
No bombs. Just a huge lack of organizational medium and knowledge of how the heck to clean things up without losing things...
Well, I'm probably interested in more than the monitor in this room. It's just so much to take in at once that you don't even have anything to say quite yet, you're just baffled.

rofl. Well, you can look through the things I singled out (in the first post, my edits)... and you can click the pictures to zoom in and look for various other crap you may have missed
Most of it's just junk though... so I don't expect to be able to sell a good part of it...

...and a 2.5" USB enclosure with media reader/copier and battery pack
It's my 20gb portable junk drive.
It's got a battery pack to help boost the USB power to run "tougher" drives, as well as to start it up on the go and copy SD/MMC/MS cards onto the drive. Jeez, can't you guys pick the things I don't use on a regular basis? Like the things in the first post?
