I really should clean up more often:  This year I've made it a priority to get rid of some of the clutter around the house and while I was shoveling through the garage, I found the parts to put this together.  It's old and slow (like the Oakridge Blue Softball team).  It's running Windows95 so it's fairly easy to use, but it won't work with any of the latest game software, (actually, pretty much anything since the turn of the century).  It has a modem (for dial-up) and a network card (for a DSL or Cable connection). I'll check the rest of the specs tonight and post an update tomorrow.  I can think of several ways it could be put to work:

• would be great as a PC for someone who just checks email and surfs the net, like a grandparent who just wants to get news and pictures from the family
• could work as a PC left on all the time with a printer attached for someone's home network
• with the right software (about $30) would make a nifty answering machine as well as a "print server"
• could be setup as a "webcam" PC
• could just be a "backup" for someone who has a less than reliable PC already.  I know from experience that this machine will sit for years in a garage and boot up without complaining

It does come with what you see in the picture - monitor, mouse(it's not permanently left-handed!) and keyboard.  I'll even throw in a reasonable amount of tech support to new home. Oh and shipping is........non-existent!  I'll drop it off if it's on my way somewhere, that's about it.

the blog is on pause until I'm back from Brazil, but there might be some new pictures posted
