I got the Kyle XY Pilot from iTunes. I watched it on TV, but grab it from iTunes cause it’s free. The first episode is essentially the pilot cut down to half an hour w/ commercials. It was a good show, reminded me of the old days when there was entertainment for the whole family. Fitting that it’s on ABC Family then… check it out, it’s not too corny 😉

I have a large box of old computer parts I rescued from my Dad’s. I threw out the 10bT networking cards, cords, and pieces that had no matching part, and now I’m looking for a good home for them.

It’s all com;puter related, motherboards, chips, memory, ribbon cables, and drives of various types and sizes.
I’m thinking of giving away anything that people might want, and then eBay the rest for $1 with “buyer pays for shipping”. I just know someone is looking for a floppy drive power connector Y cable or a 486DX4 processor, I just can’t throw it out. 8 bit IDE controller anyone? 16bit? ISA VGA, ISA 16bit SVGA, or 32bit Enhanced ISA? (pre PCI)

The thought went through my mind to put together lessons. This is the box of stuff I worked with when I was young, building PCs from the parts, and how I learned everything I know today. If they still worked (which I’m not sure of) it would be a great teaching tool. I don’t have the opportunity nor the space to keep them around, so I’d be fine with getting them to a good home.

Put any requests in the comments to reserve, I’ll just give the stuff away.
