What do you have? I'd like something huge to sit in the lounge and piss the missus off, if it has flashing lights like the thing from "War Games" so much the better.While you're waiting, read the free novel we sent you. It's a Spanish story about a guy named 'Manual.' -
Always fancied a Cray 1. The one I've seen (La Grande Arch The Computer Museum) is a thing of beauty although granted my last but 2 mobile phone was more powerful.Originally posted by Durbs View PostA for sale board. I love to buy IT tat and have a room full of kit I need to offload which, whilst being old and redundant to myself, would probably still be deemed magical or witchcraft to most of you.merely at clientco for the entertainmentComment

Sorry, no Cray or flashing lights but I can offer a Proliant ML115 server for starters with upgraded ram and various disks fitted for £25 for whoever fancies picking it up from Cheshire.
Good machine used as a test web/SQL box but have some N40L's now so got no use for it.Comment

I went on a college outing to visit a Cray. We were all very impressed by the built in seating. Would be perfect for the lounge.Originally posted by eek View PostAlways fancied a Cray 1.

I've just consolidated everything into a single box( i7 3770, 32gb of ram running esxi). There's 5 servers running on it at the moment using 65 watts. I do however have a year old latitude e6520 that I need to get rid of (8gb ram, 1080p screen 1228gb SSD) with 18 months or so warranty left.Originally posted by Durbs View PostSorry, no Cray or flashing lights but I can offer a Proliant ML115 server for starters with upgraded ram and various disks fitted for £25 for whoever fancies picking it up from Cheshire.
