Damn screws

I got plenty of 586-133 that would probably fit that board.
I'd send ya one of those free. I got all kinds of cheap stuff.
We could probably get you into a pentium 233 at least.
 
And a mothereboard too?
I have $17....
I would love a P-233 with 64MB PC-66...
*dreams*
I have 220w AT PSU (but if you have an extra ATX it is nice too, the AT has only 8 amps on 12v rail)
 
Let me check my inventory, and I'll get back with you tomarrow.
This is what I like to do. Make computers affordable for people
that can't afford them. I remember all to well when I just wished
I could afford a 386.;)
 
I wish I could afford a 1800+...
Oh well, it is only $861 away...
I could probably afford a 1800+ if I saved u[ like 3 months, but I would need mobo, RAM, video card, all that shit

Actually this tower started out as a 386 25MHz
Thanks for the help catocom
Much appreciated by poor middle schooler
 
I had a 286 back when the Pentium came out. I remember drooling browsing through the pages of catalogs at them.
 
I had a 486 dx2-100.:eek:
I think I paid about $3500 after a year and forever of financing.

I was on a 286-mono-40meg hd 2years before that one.
and a real piece of shit Tandy before that one. This thing
used those huge 8.25 floppies. I had a big ass 3 drive unit.:D
so I could run 4 of those 180k floppies at a time.:eek:
 
My uncle used to have 8.25 floppies, and 8" HDDs...
On the table next to that is my Compaq Portable 8088 4.77MHz YEAH BABY!
 
:rofl:
I remember when I got that 286 with the 40meg HD, the
salesman told "that's all the harddrive space you'll ever need"
and I believed him.
til I got windows 3.1.:headbang:

I still love msdos though, and still do some programming with
QBasic. I didn't know what to think when you couldn't get
the whole operating system on one floppy.:D
 
Oh yes, those were the days. Actually the first salesman to tell me that was with my 2.1 Gig on my K-6 200. Told me that computer should last me a good ten years. Yeah. That was 5 years ago. Uh huh.
 
yep,
I'm glad I don't have to go back.
I'd probably go crazy.:D

I don't know though. I guess that may be why I'm getting back
to Linux. Got to have that command line fix.:p
 
I still use command line, in fact just the other day, my nine year old asked me why Windows was called Windows, so I went into a detailed explanation, including booting my computer up in Dos to show him what computers Used to look like. I'm still not sure if he believed me.
 
command line is now very underestimated...

i use it on daily basis, last thing was to copy the dir listing of my MP3 folder so i wouldn't have to type out all the bands i like...:D
 
Command line stuff is important for games too.
Id you're not into them i'll explain: There is this thing called a console, which is a lot like MS-DOS. You can do scripts and stuff in that, like these:
