I am seeking dead (read: free) examples of the following:
Must all be less than 3 years old.

Motherboard
CPU
HDD
RAM
SATA hard drive
Video card
DVD Burner

They are to be mounted on a display board for teaching purposes at our college.

Am happy to pay freight/costs.

I might have a burnt out video card.

Will have a look when I get home.

Yep - lemons, failures etc I just want modern equipment to demo as part of a display board, they will never need to go, so I do not want to pay for anything!

Ive got a ton of crap sitting around here which is in various stages of (not) working. Mainly S939/748 boards with CPUs. Should have a few DVD drives as well.. And a Sony notebook if your interested (SATA channels blew on it - replacement boards not worth the money).. And one dead SATA 2.5" drive as well. Check me a PM/email if your interested..

We have a stack of gear in the office which we are about to chuck out, PM me and we can talk if you are prepared to pay freight from wgtn. Could include Sparc 20 (busted, used for spare parts), old Dell servers (4 years old+, 9gb disks & array controllers etc) most of it works, just has sub 512/256 mb of ram so not much good as a server these days. Also have a Proliant 1920R, but again, heavy, old, and full of 9GB disks.
