Free Items: Computers, Monitors, mice, keyboards, books and more !
-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi gang, I was helping Steve Daukas and Barb Waud clean out some of Doug's old computers today. You may recall that Doug was a WLUG member for many years (sadly, he passed away in March 2006). Barb has asked me to find a home for these items. Everything works, but some of it is rather "vintage" (sorry, preused, preowned!). Don't worry - if you don't get something now, there's more where this stuff came from(!). Doug was very avid when it came to his computer hobby. I will bring these items to the WLUG BBQ (coming up this Thursday) and to the next regular WLUG meeting (Thurs Sept 7th). If you want something, send me an email and I'll be happy to hold it for you. Please pick it up at one of these two meetings, or make other arrangements with me. First come, first served. Here is the email address in case you wish to send a thank-you note to Barb Waud: barbara.waud@umassmed.edu OK, here is the (long!) list of items which are available. Ideally, someone will want a system box with a matching monitor, keyboard, and mouse combo.

Hi gang,
I was helping Steve Daukas and Barb Waud clean out some of Doug's old computers today. You may recall that Doug was a WLUG member for many years (sadly, he passed away in March 2006).
I remember. That is unfortunate. :(
Barb has asked me to find a home for these items. Everything works, but some of it is rather "vintage" (sorry, preused, preowned!).
I prefer "broken in". :) (Much of my own hardware is like Doug's.)
Don't worry - if you don't get something now, there's more where this stuff came from(!). Doug was very avid when it came to his computer hobby.
This is an indication that he cared about his hobby. ;)
I will bring these items to the WLUG BBQ (coming up this Thursday) and to the next regular WLUG meeting (Thurs Sept 7th). If you want something, send me an email and I'll be happy to hold it for you. Please pick it up at one of these two meetings, or make other arrangements with me. First come, first served.
Here is the email address in case you wish to send a thank-you note to Barb Waud: barbara.waud@umassmed.edu
I shall.
3 pairs of memory dimms (untested) looks like 144 pin dimms not sure of the sizes 2 pairs are HP 1818-6126 (looks like 16 MB ECC each) 1 pair has 9 chips (each) with "SEC Korea KM44C16104AK-6"
=== end ===
According to http://www.xs4all.nl/~ganswijk/chipdir/f/dram.htm , that last pair seems to be 16x4 EDO DRAM.

I'm interested in the HP697C. If it's still available, I'd like to pick it up at the September 7th WLUG meeting. -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- William Smith wsmith-at-chezsmith-dot-com Fall River, MA http://www.chezsmith.com Religion is a crutch, but that's okay...

Hi gang,

Yes - this is a laptop. Also, I will continue to sort through more hardware, software, and books/texts/journals, and be able to add to Andy's list over the coming weeks. What I really wanted to say is "Thank You" to Andy for helping with this. This has been a "fits and starts" type of project where it can be very helpful to have a 3rd-party (Andy) involved. As Andy can attest, this isn't just one or two systems, its more like several rooms of stuff. (As an aside, Doug and I had ~15 systems networked at one time several years back with a bunch of those, and many others, having been donated to a refugee assistance program in Shrewsbury...) Andy, you were very nice to take the items you did. I can tell Barbara is feeling good about having made some progress and it will be that much easier to inventory and give away the remaining items. Thanks! Steve

I am fairly interested in this. If nobody minds, I can swing by and pick it up at the Barbecue.
