Hello there, ACMers and TCLUGians. For those of you who are UofM ACM members, you may notice that our humble hardware swap (which is very nice, by the way... come check it out if you haven't already!) was blessed by the donation of about seven very nice 15" Compaq Pressario CRT monitors, as well as a box of very randomly assorted PCI cards (including an encryption card...) and other crazy stuff. All of this was donated (to me) by a man who lives out in St. Michael, Minnesota (about 30-45 minutes from the Cities, just before Albertville) named Kevin LaCombe. If anyone is interested, Kevin has about 10 (?) more nice 15" Compaq Pressario CRT monitors (with all the appropriate cords), a few ATX and IBM monitors of about 15" (give or take), and a slew of 12" IBM boxy-monitors (good for "under-the-bed" servers) up for free that he is trying to get out of his garage. He also has a box of large keyboards and mice (non-USB, of course) and some old printers that he is trying to get rid of. The monitors especially are great for test boxes and playful "project" computers. Furthermore, Kevin also has a set of IBM AS/400 9406-730 professional server racks (gutted, of course) that he is trying to get rid of as well. These are very nice, but are (as most of you know) very large and heavy, but would be VERY nice to have. If you are interested in any of these items, email Kevin ASAP at the following address and he should get back to you within a day: klacombe2002 at yahoo.com Thanks for reading!
