Alright yall, putting it all on the table here. Got quite a few things we need to get rid of, in order to fund getting a new pc, so here goes:

 

* Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 4 (256GB) (purple) - $650 or offers. Great little phone, in as-new condition, comes with the cable and the wireless charging pad. PB tech price around $1800.
* Synology DS423 (diskless) (2GB ram, quad-core ARM64 CPU) - $300 or offers. Cute little NAS, but upgraded. Thought was giving this to gf but that didn't turn out, so here it is for yall. Also in pretty much as-new condition, got power cord, screws, drive trays etc. PB tech price is $754... wow, that's higher than we expected.
* Netgear JGS-516PE 16-port PoE switch - $100 or offers. Basic little jobby, has a fan but you never hear it, works fine, does the PoE thing fine (tested it with a phone and an AP), all looks good over here. Not sure of the pb tech price, but google says $280?
* Cisco AIR-CAP-1805I 802.11AC wireless access point - $150 or offers. Has got an integrated controller so no faffing about with Cisco VWLCs or anything. Running the latest firmware, don't have the mounting hardware sorry but honestly put it on a table, we all do. No idea about the PB tech price on this one but a similar one is going for $1699. Then again, it's Cisco; their prices are painful.
* Sonos Play:5 gen1 wireless speaker - $100 or offers. Sad to see this one go, a really really nice little speaker, despite it being 15 bloody years old. Still works, still pairs to the Sonos S1 app fine, still bloody works as a UPNP media renderer with Foobar2000 and the likes. PB tech price is no goddamn idea, it's ancient.
* Generic little Celeron J1900 mini pc (4 gigabit LAN, 8GB ram, 128GB SSD) - $150 or offers. Worked as a docker box, faff around application server little thing. Very cute, very fanless, very solid metal box.
* Lenovo Thinkpad L14 Gen2 (Intel Core i7-1165G7, 48GB RAM, 500GB SSD) - $600 or offers. +150 to come with the Thunderbolt 3 dock. Also sad to see this one go, pretty little laptop in pretty good condition especially for having survived many trips to and from Seattle. Currently running Fedora 40 but will come with no OS on.

 


We can get you photos of all of these things on request; taking photos when you're blind is.... a trip. Hopefully re-listing an item we've already got up here isn't against the rules, and hopefully some of yall will be interested in any of this stuff. PM us if so.

 

We really rather hope the list actually works and doesn't go bolding and unbolding things like a broken bolding thing.

 

Edit (03:21 Pacific Time 09-Oct-24): added Lenovo Thinkpad L14 (gen2).

For the J1900 mini PC, do you have a model number or link to the product page?  Alternatively, can you provide a few tech specs, I'm looking at setting up a fanless low-data-volume backup server, is the storage SATA or M.2, and how many ports/slots/whatever does it have for that?  What sort of power supply does it take?

No product page sorry, but can give you specs. Celeron J1900, 8GB ddr3 RAM in a single SoDIMM, storage is MSATA-based with a single slot. takes 12V at .... 1/2 amps, we're blind so we can't read the power adapter. It takes right about no power whatsoever, from all we can tell. You could stick like a 500GB or 1TB MSATA disk in that and get a little teeny storage server and it would work quite well for that, actually. Considering it ran Solaris in cross-architecture SPARC qemu emulation and handled that pretty ok (and in fact ran Solaris X64 just fine) It's a cute little box and could probably do you pretty good for that.

Damn, sounds almost perfect except for the single storage slot, I only need maybe 16-32GB storage (it's for configs and settings from a bunch of embedded devices that would be a pain to recreate) but was looking for two slots for mirroring the data.

 

Let me see if I can talk myself into it :-).

hrm. You could stick a USB drive into it for mirroring purposes. Sidenote, we know the feeling re: embedded device configs, we use another similar machine to boot half our Cisco gear and to backup firmware and configs.
