Title: Free* to Good Home
Post by: Thor on September 22, 2009, 04:57:37 PM
I have some RAM for an older PC. There are two sticks, 1- IBM 512 MB PC133 (64 x 64) and 1- Spectek 256 MB PC133 (32 x 64). All I ask is that if anyone wants these that they pay actual shipping. (Appears to be a $15 value for the both of them on eBay) The motherboard fried (I think the IDE controller. It wouldn't boot past the processor check and RAM count). They did pass the motherboard RAM Check, as best I could tell. Drop me a PM if you have an older PC and could use these.

Ya know, THERE ARE people out there with legacy computers that MIGHT need these. I really don't care for your smartassed remarks. FFS, at max, it would cost someone $4 for postage.

I got an old computer that was being thrown out at work, and that ram is too much for it.  It has a very small HDD, and runs Win98.

Why?

I had brought it home when we got our first computer to have one to mess around with. At that time I could use it to surf the web, albeit very slowly.

Old computers can make very good routers/ firewalls, depending on one's needs.
