Re: Rebuilding old computer parts

I would, but that's just me. I am still holding on to my first computer (180 Mhz, 16MB Ram, 1.6GB HDD) and I also hold on to another oldie (PIII 450 Mhz, 256 MB Ram, 40 GB) for Windows 98/DOS use.

Hell... I have an external 9600 BPS modem and a 28.8k modem laying around that I still use from time to time.

I still wanna find an old Apple II system and a 486 system, but both seem to be very hard items to find.

I think I still have a 486 DX100 w/mobo and memory and VESA GPU laying around. Case too, but it's heavy. PM me and you can have it for Shipping.

Still worked the last time I had it plugged in.

Ah not worth it for 486 CPU.

Shucks. Hoping to get rid of the clutter for free...

I will say that the DX 100 was a pretty rare chip back in the day.. IIRC, I had maxed out the memory.

I have upgraded my 486SX to 486DX back in 1997 or 1998
