Save The Geeks - adept's Report

[Stalemate]

As some of you may have noticed, I'm currently shopping for some new hardware to upgrade my personal system into the AthlonXP world.

I've sold off some older laptops I had lying around which weren't crucial to me, and can modestly invest for a system with more "bang".

So I've requested that I be removed from the current "needy geek" status at Save The Geeks and would like to report the following.

===============================

I think I've got a proper inventory of everything I've received through Save The Geeks and otherwise.

Here goes:

From Garak:

• ECS D6VAA motherboard (dual CPU capable)
• Celeron 700 CPU

I'm especially touched by Garak's gesture as I know that he could have still profited from these parts - and probably could have used the money too. Thanks to my overseas friend.

From DocPC:

• Radeon 7000/VE 32Mb DDR (W00t!)
• 2x ATI Rage Pro (1 Turbo) AGP graphics cards
• Sound Blaster PCI512
• Sound Blaster PCI128
• 3Com 3C905b-TX NIC
• 2x Sound Blaster microphones
• 2x power cords

I hope I'm not forgetting anything, DocPC! Please correct me if I did - I just lost track of my hardware when my wife cleaned our office, as I never got around to doing it myself.

DocPC was the first, and only WinDrivers member so far, who contributed directly through Save the Geeks.

===============================


Thank you all, not only for the donations, but especially for your participation, involvement, and sympathy.

Moi! I could to with 2 for a compaq deskpro to see me through my network essentials and MCSE (I like practical more than theory i learn faster)

I think I might have either a slot 1 PII 300 or a celeron 266 that I don't need...I'll have to dig around through the old spare parts box.


*edit*

I guess I could have just pulled out the box and looked before posting...I do have an extra processor sitting around, it's a PII 266 but I don't have a fan for it.

Mr. Parts gatherer, please add it to your list.

ok I have a P4 1.4ghz that needs a socket 423 mainboard to test it. (not sure if its good or not). If someone would like to test it to See if its good I can ship it to them if its good or bad they don't have to ship it back.

I have a board I can test it on.

Hmmm.....don't know about anyone else, but I'd almost be willing to go buy a board to test it.

You want some of this? Huh?

You want a piece of me?

Can't wait to get UT2003 afterwards, just to see if it will replace Q3 as my fav.

Knowing you, probably.. especially if you like eye candy..
