Hi,
I wanted to reply to this message ages ago, and am now finally getting
around to it. I don't really have any old hardware that I really need to
get rid of, but the more I think about it, the more I realize that at this
rate, I'll probably never use half of what I currently have. I suspect
that shipping may be more than some of this stuff is worth (I'm in the US)
but if that's not an issue, I'd be willing to give away or sell (depending
on what it is) some of my old hardware. I don't really have any whole
systems but I suppose with an AT mini-tower case I could build something.
More likely, though, I thought I may be able to help out of someone is
looking for an old card (video, drive controller), mother board, or ICs
(memory, CPUs) for either building/fixing an XT or building an embedded
system. Let me know if there's something I can help out with!
