Title: Hooked Up
Post by: xyle_one on 16 January 2003, 06:46

gotta love this. I have an old iPaq 3600 with an expansion pack etc... Well, i was talking with an ex-coworker and asked if he knew anyone interested in one. He said he could use one and asked how much i wanted for it. I said $200 or maybe we could trade something. We decided on a trade, and i got not one, but two pIII 600 systems with geForce 2 32mb cards. one system has 256 mb ram, the other needs memeory. What a fucking deal. And it couldnt have happened at a better time. I just gave my linux box to my ex-girlfriend so she could set up a small server & learn linux. So now i can setup one with freeBSD and try to get my head around that, and the other.... who knows. anyone need a computer???
