Folks

Have an old Dell Precision 530 i'm looking to get rid of - ideally to charity or other needy cause.

Its a big old beast (c2002), a Pentium3 1800Mhz, 60GB h/d, i think 512Mb ram (poss 1GB), comes with 18" flat panel, comes with k/b, mouse etc

Just wiped the h/d (with h/d wiping s/w) and reinstalled a kosher copy of XP SP2

Based in SE London (SE6), would appreciate local pick-up (evening or w/e collection only)

If anyone knows of anyone needing one, pls get in touch

cheers
SP

That's a pity I've got Two to move myself (moved over to Apple)
And was wondering to ring these people myself.


There a bit of a problem to know what to do with.

Think I'll try the local free ads next
might be different around your area, still worth a go I think.

If no one else wants it I can pick it up tomorrow PM. I was asked for a 'learning pc' on Friday for one of my clients' father smile
job done if you can pickup in the evening? circa 7-9pm?
